Keris Terengganu (?) found in the crap

Hello,

have recently bought by an online auction by very poor pictures this Malay keris, I think it's a Terengganu keris (maybe Kelantan?), nothing special but nice enough to give it care which it seemed to has missed for a long time. It was listed with some other blades, two tourist knifes and a recent machete from Brazil.
Hilt is of the anak ayam teleng style made from kemuning wood. Sampir from ketengga and gandar from angsana wood. Blade is very worn and show pandai saras shape with 7 luk. The sarung get refurbished some time ago and is maybe older as it look while the pendokok from brass seems to be very recent. The last picture show one of the auction pictures. Any comments?
