Keris for ID and comment

The ukiran or hilt is from Madura. I think the complete keris is from Madura. The wrongko or ship of the scabbard is missing. The gandar or the remaining piece of the scabbard has been carved by some idiot, on a dark rainy night.
The blade looks good to me. You should have the blade stained with warangan. I think you will get a lovely pamor. The next step is trying to get a good scabbard for this fellow.If you succeed with that you will have a very fine Maduran Keris.
