I have bought recently two small obviously Peninsula keris. The blades are rather simple but both seems to have some age. One have a very good carved horn handle and a good worked silver pendoko. The one with wooden hilt have a iras blade with 5 luk and the other one a 7 luk blade. The one with horn hilt and warangka are 27 cm (10,6 inch) overall and the one with wooden hilt are 25 cm (9,8 inch). Who can give me more informations about this two? Are this really keris patrem or early tourist keris?

Thank's in advance,

Detlef
