Hi Detlef,

The fit of the blade in the sheath is not ''original'' the sheath is to wide for the blade , but I think it's already a long time like this .

I'm still not sure it's Balinese , it could be but the sheath is a little more ''fat'' then what you see common for a Balinese Waranka .

Sorry Danny, i hit "edit" instead of "quote" in error the first time.
I think this one might be all Madura from the looks of it...

I have no hesitation in providing my opinion that this second keris is 100% Bali-Madura.
