I don't know, Kai Wee, the dress are nothing spectacular (though i've always been fond of those "accordian hilts and that's nice timoho), but the blades are all pretty solid and certainly nothing i wouldn't be happy to have in my own collection. Personally, i've always found some of the more high-end jewel studded and gold Bali dresses a bit too gaudy for my tastes (oh, maybe i would like to own just one ) Push come to shove it's always the blade that's important for me. I've seen a ton of over dressed mediocre blades selling for way too much money. If these were mine i would look into finding some higher end uwers (mendaks) for them. You'd be surprised (or maybe not) just how much nicer it can make a good keris in a plain dress look.
