Hello Jean,

the blade from the keris shown in the book from Frey isn't to seen, the blade on my photo isn't the one which belong to the sheath. (See the hilts)

But you're correct by the hilts, both more Madura or North-East coast style, tomorrow I can show pictures.

BTW, I think I have seen here in the forum once a similar sheath, but can't remember where and may be wrong.

Regards,

Detlef
