The used wood of the handle and scabbard is timoho wood, blade seems to be from dapur tilam upih. The keris seems to be from East Java. Try to repair the wooden sheath, it's a rare and expensive wood. After the repair use a good wood oil and polish the sheath with car polish. Nice mendak! The black ring around the handle is called kendit.

Regards,

Detlef
