According to me the clothing (handle and scabbard) of the Keris are less old then the keris itself, but this is quite common as the wood is less strong then the keris itself. As you can see the handle is matching well with the scabbard and keris. The wooden warangka (scabbard) has a Ladrang motif (shape of shipp) from Solo and the keris is fitting good in the scabbard. The wood is very nice (see the detailed pictures).The kerisblade is +/- 36 cm and the total length of the keris in the scabbard is 51 cm. Off course the low starting bid is less then the actual value and only to encourage read more
