Rust can come up very quickly. Even in a few days. The rust is rather lose if you look at the pictures and doesn't seem rust being there for years. That kind of rust looks much more different.

 Well, if a keris is well cared for i would say that there should never be any rust on the pesi at all, so i don't think that we can judge the age of a keris based on whether or nor there is deep set rust on the pesi or any part of the blade. That this rust is surface rust is a good thing and i would suggest once again that you clean it before it becomes a problem.
