Hello all,

I've bought this keris 2003 from a Bugis who don't have had a shop. This is unfortunately the only provenance I have. Like I write before, the handle I changed byself, it's possible that this handle is recent, I also know this handles from Celuk. I will post pictures from the original handle later. Yesterday I did some research in the forum, here is a link I want to remember: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...hlight=sumbawa
The wooden part of the sheat is old, this I believe and the blade fits perfect inside the sheat, from this I will post also a picture later.
Pendok and toli toli is difficult to say, maybe old, maybe recent. What I have seen yesterday, the pendok seems to be typical for Sumbawa keris. Here some pictures I copied from the forum (hope the former owner forgive me). You can see nearly the same motifs.

Mr. Maisey, you can explain me what at this dress look Javanese to you?
