Dunno if it is relevant.
Well, this is dressed, at least, as a Javanese keris. Keris selit are, AFAIK, a Malay thing. And generally speaking they tend to be of a somewhat higher quality than this piece.
I think this might more correctly be considered a keris patrem. Could have been intended either for a woman or a child i suppose.
