Were you unable to access this link? It is a data base of keris from various museum collections. As Sirek stated, mostly just good as an image reference as the information with each keris is somewhat limited.

From one of the Singapore museums I guess according to the type of krisses (mostly Malay and Sumatra)?

Yes Jean, it looks like the keris are all from the Asian Civilizations Museum in Singapore, though the website shows collections from multiple museums.
While it does appear that the majority of keris the museum has cataloged are Malay or Sumatran i do note a fair amount of blades from Jawa, Bali and Madura. There does not seem to be many high quality pieces from any area though.
