It looks like a Maduran keris. Sheath is in a Maduran Ladrang form made of timoho wood. Overall, a pretty-looking keris.
What is it that you want to know about your keris?

Can you give a close up of the sorsoran* and a mid blade shot of the pamor ?
Not to mention a close up of the handle ?
*(base of the blade)

Well, size is not really a factor with keris pricing per se, but i would say you got a sweet deal on this one per inch.
Can you give us the demensions please?
