Found it in Maui

I was in search of edged weapons during my vacation. The only Moro sandata I came across was the touristy type in Oahu. My luck turned in Maui. I found the Keris' a few doors down from where the Sewah was formerly residing. I believe the ivory hilted one is from Madura, and the Kocet-Kocetan is from Bali. The one from Madura has an odd blade. I could be totally wrong about the area of origin.

Photos are not very good. Here in Washington, we are plunging into darkness
early.

Comments would be appreciated.
