Well, the only thing i will change from my last set of comments is that i was probably thing 1600-1700 instead of century, because i don't think it would be as old as 16th century. Most probably sometime in the 18th century.

Still a handsome keris that i would not at all mind in my own collection.

how would anyone estimate this keris as old as 17th century? what kind of parameters are used to arrive at this estimate?

i am too inexperienced to make a guess but would love to learn more!
