For a javanese, the wavy blade is not the definitive design of a keris. A blade must have three aspect to be even considered a keris and not just a keris-like object (which there are many) : 1. The material must be steel ; 2. It has to have a definite, separate gonjo (that guard-like flare actually is separate, but one) ; 3. It has to have a 'condong leleh' (that cant forward) of at least around 5°, but not more than 15°

Keris wave shapes like snake… silent and deadly. Kris is not for box opening or unboxing, noisy marital art fighting or so call self defence, but Kris design size and blade material all aim at silently slipping into opponent stomach and pull enemies’ intestine out ; it is designed purely to kill. It is not designed to deter enemies from attacking you or design to just hurt someone, it is designed to kill. When you attack with Keris you need to focus, silently bend your knees so that the blade will cut through the center of the stomach, (belly button) ; There was primitive groups (until now) believe amongst South East Asian (Hindu) warriors that you need to consume enemies’ intestine to gain courage, so that the enemies’s spirit be with you and keris designed to take out enemies’ intestine. You might heard some groups fighting happens in South East Asia still uses Keris and they attacked kill the enemies silently at night and then consume their enemies intestine and then drag the remains on the street to scare the enemies families from taking revenge. This still happens.

The most magical Kris in Malaysia is Swinging Monkey Kris owned by Sultan of Selangor. In the past the kris belongs to a big monkey that killed 99 people. The monkey later defeated by a local warrior using cork wood that stuck the kris blade. Because of 99 people have been lost their soul through this kris, when it unsheathed, people around it will feel headache.

I'm not great with hand sharpening and I think some guided systems like the the DMT/Lansky/KME clamp-based systems may not sharpen the interior of the curves well (I have trouble with simple recurves on the DMT Aligner). However, any free/partially-guided stone system (bench stone, Sharpmaker, etc.) should work- you can drag the edge along and access the insides of the curves. Hissatsu5 had a video on this recently.

For the morokris. There's a lot of version depending on the tribe. Northern filipinos relied on the jungle. But the moros in the south preferred the plains. They attack out in the open. Thats why weapons from the south are a bit bigger. They tend to wrap their hands, binding it firmly to the sword.

Now their waters are being polluted and stripped bare by China's maritime militia.
