I seriously doubt that there are many keris that were actually made from meterites,and by many I mean very ,very ,very few.

Thanks for the help guys!
As much as I'd like to believe the folklore that has been passed along with it, that it was an athame forged in Iceland from meteorite iron, I'd rather know the truth as much as possible. If anything, I'm very excited that this knife traveled that much farther to reach me, and I am taking very good care of it. I am tossing the idea around of making a replica-type of sheath for it. If I do so, I'll research for some time before beginning.
Yes, this handle is beautiful, and seems to me a bit younger than the blade.
