Hi spooks, welcome. Nice to see another Singaporean keris lover (there are quite a handful here, by the way).
The books recommended by Raja Muda, The Kris: Mystic Weapon of the Malay World, is a good book. Great for beginners. I bought mine at
www.amazon.com (USD 15.95). Be sure to get the 3rd Edition which contains a good Archives section.

For Ensiklopedi Kerisby Bambang Harsrinuksmo, I bought mine in Batam, Toko Gramedia at S$ 55.00. On the internet, you can get it from eBay or elsewhere but it will cost more.

For more books, see this thread.

Some of it you can loan from the National Library.
Happy reading.
