This is a nice keris, but i don't think i would classify this blade as Bugis. What about it makes it Bugis for you?

I suppose this spelling goes back to the post: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...t=10218&page=3

Congratulations, a really nice blade, Mamat. Regarding the fittings: is the sampir new or just used and recently "married" to this blade? What would you say about the age of selut?

dear all ,
thanks for the comments.

hi david , i said the blade is bugis cause i obtain directly from the original owner,
he is a villager in kampung bugis (west sumbawa).

To Gustav ,sampir and ganjar are new ,also the pendhok.
the original part of it only blade and hilt.
oh ya selut is new made also

You say original owner. Then this keris isn't so old after all?
Even so this is clearly not a Bugis style blade.
