An update:
blade length: 36,8 cm. Gonjo length: 8 cm. It isn't Keris Lombok, the question is - East Java or Bali?
It has an old, very smooth finish, which is commonly associated with Bali, yet in the first part of 19th cent. such finish was possible also on East Javanese Keris.
Sheath likely is made for the blade, blade is evenly sunken in, inside of sheath is not fiddled with recently, sheath is on small side, yet acceptable for Balinese Keris.
Kendhit on hilt is natural.
