I removed the last photo for you.
To you question if this is a Tajong keris, the answer is no.
Tajong keris are identified first of all by the hilt form as well as the form of sarong. While we do find other types of blades in Tajong dress, the "correct" blade for a keris Tajong os generally accepted to be the pandai saras type.
