The blade looks old and more than 40 cm long, but I would rather attribute it to Java North Coast and not Bali (thickness, shape, style of greneng, pejetan, deep tikel alis, pamor pattern, etc.).
In your place I would replace the recent hilt & scabbard

Regards

Yes I will. With 30€ for that piece there will be some potencial left for a good hilt & scabbard

Hello Thomas,
This is an example of a suitable scabbard and hilt for your blade, but they are difficult to find.
