The bone/ivory handled one is a gunong or punyal, rather than a kris. Big ones like this are often modern and for tourists. If the grip is ivory, then it isn't tourist. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GunongThe other one, which is a kris properly speaking, looks modern at first glance, made for the tourist market. The fittings at least are a typical tourist kris style. How long and heavy? Hard to say exactly how old.

They look rather modern and the fittings look like aluminum. Are they sharp? I think the tourist ones tend to be blunt and chromed.
The fittings on the scabbards looks a little loose.
They look nice but more clearer pictures are needed.
