What is the name of the traditional asymmetrical dagger with a distinctive wavy blade, worn as part of ceremonial dress and considered a symbol of Malay identity and sovereignty?

The keris (or kris) is a double-edged dagger unique to the Malay world, often featuring a patterned blade (pamor) forged by layering different metals; UNESCO recognised it in 2005.
