Default A friend's newly acquired kris for comment

Here are a few pics of a kris that a friend just bought . As he is quite new to collecting kris/sundang he wanted to ask for my opinion but as I'm also not well versed on sundangs I suggested he post here for comments from some of you who have more experience in collecting this weapon type and he requested me to post on his behalf.

Would appreciate if you can give your view on it regarding probable age, where it is from and quality etc? The only thing I can say is that the part circled B looked like it is bent and probably the kris was dropped which cause this bent. Part circled A looked to me like a repair? and i've not seen this type of pommel before.
