Thanks for your comments, Kai Wee.

Yes, I agree, a first impression of that straight blade would certainly be Palembang --- until you hold it in your hand, when you find that there is significant difference in percieved weight and balance (tanting) and differences in the material used from a Palembang blade.

Here are a couple more pics of the two keris in their wrongkos.

Does anybody else have an opinion they would like to share?

I've had these two keris for a while, and I do have a little bit of info on them, but as I've said, this is outside my area, and I really would appreciate the opinions of people who know more about keris of this style than I do.
