Hello Lee
IMO two pieces are Indonesian keris (M12 from Madura, M15 from Surakarta). M14 is a wavy dagger of other origin -- maybe from the Philippines? Regards, Heinz |

Would like to see better pictures of M14, maybe some close ups from the ganja area.

M14 does look like it is from Ilocos Norte in the Philippines. What is odd is the base of the blade with the upturned steel.

Would like to see the 13 luk keris stained!
 The Bugis blade in Riau (?) dress is will look very nice with a fitting pendokok and a little bit maintain care. And the panjang keris is just beautiful, which material is the hilt? Nice group!! Regards, Detlef |

I also like the keris panjang M20 (simple but beautiful) but the others are just common quality old pieces IMO.
