Do you think this is a Majapahit keris?

Hello Anthony,
The pamor pattern is too worn-out to be properly identified and your pics of the full blade are not very clear; some people would call it Pulo Tirto (islands in the ocean) but it was probably Beras Wutah originally from what I can see. Was the pesi damaged and repaired at mid-length? The kembang kacang is bungkem (touching the gandik) which is a peculiar feature.
The dapur type is Sempana bungkem but with one exception: it should not include greneng (the ganja was replaced).
Regards

I think pesi is intact. Thanks for the info.
