three Bali Keris

Hello all,

I have 3 Bali Keris in my collections.

The first one is said to be from the nineteenth century, and this one is special because it has a smooth blade and is not as rough as the other keris.

The second one is also said to be from the nineteenth century, and this one has an ugly hilt, and the blade is pretty thin. I think it's used for ceremony or decoration not for combat.

The third one is said to be form the Seventeenth or eighteenth century，it has a very beautiful demon hilt. However the blade is slightly damaged.

Can you help me to identify if they are really old antiques or maybe they are just souvenirs made recently ?
