If a curio collector, then leave as is, if a keris collector, redress as Bali.
The blade is 17.75"long (post 1), taking into consideration the garap, most certainly this is a Bali blade.

Thanks Alan, i must have missed the measurement. I wasn't asking about size to determine if the blade was Balinese or not. Just trying to understand why Rob thought the sarung was extra large for Bail keris.
