Default Bali keris?

Hi All

I just picked this up and probably paid a bit more than normal for it but it seems to be some type of keris sword that I have not seen yet? Any ideas on what it is?

Arrow Not Bali and not Keris!

Lew,
You do have a good eye, to bid on this Cundrik/Sundrik from Lombok.
Nice piece and very reasonable priced. Congratulations

Is this a rare form of sword? Have not seen to many of these and have been collecting for many years.

Lew,
It is fairly scarce and of a characteristic form from Lombok, in fact we did discuss a similar piece in the forum a couple of years ago.

Is it similar to this sword or is this totally different?

Thumbs up Lombok sword - a Cundrik...

Hi Lew,

You have a beauty ...

It's a Cundrik, all right...
It was discussed earlier. Here's the thread...

Hi Lew. This one would be a different form altogether. Definitely not a cundrik. I think this one might be a keris pedang. Anyone else want to take a stab...
