Assistance for a keris novice

David and AG,
Thank you so much for so quickly providing such useful information. You have confirmed some guesses I had about it. I too noticed how perfectly the blade fits the scabbard and thought they were indeed well matched. Also, the blade just 'feels' old aesthetically. Add to that the fact that I received her covered in cosmoline...yuck. I believe you can still see some residue in the pictures (since removed).
I will try to post some better pics tomorrow and see if that helps. Thanks again
