The item below was sold in 2011 by the respected auction company Hermann Historica (Auction 61, Lot no. 3216, May 2-3, 2011) for the relatively low price of 200 euros. It was listed as "Kleiner Kris der Moro."

While the hilt and scabbard are consistent with Moro, it obviously has a keris blade from the Indonesian archipelago. Perhaps our Keris Warung Kopi colleagues can help with the age and origin of this blade.

I cannot recall seeing a similar example. Has anyone here seen another example of a keris in Moro dress?

It seems that the bidders at the auction were not overly impressed by this ensemble, at least judging from what it sold for.
