I GUESS THIS POST SHOULD BE MOVED TO THE ETHNOGRAPHIC FORUM AS IT DOSEN'T FULFILL THE PROPER FORM OF A KERIS. THE BLADE IS PARMOR THE HANDLE IS A PROPER KERIS HANDLE AND HAS QUITE A BIT OF AGE AS THIS SORT OF WOOD TAKES ON PATINA VERY SLOWLY SO I DON'T THINK THIS IS JUST SOMETHING PUT TOGETHER FOR TOURISTS. THE BLADE IS 7 INCHES AND ITS 9.5 INCHES LONG TOTAL, THE BLADE IS THIN AND NOT MUCH THICKER IN THE CENTER AS IN MOST SPEAR BLADES.
I WOULD APPRECIATE IF THE POST CAN BE MOVED BY A MODERATOR THANKS
