Hello members,
yesterday I bought by a online auction
this restauration object:
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Unfortunately I am able to copy the pictures but my pc don't have a program to open this files so I don't know if I can attach pictures.
When I look inside Cato at page 72 blades like this described as 18th Century kris. I want to ask the more knowledge members if I am correct by this. And I am wonder how the missing sheath tip will look like. My guess is that it have been like the one from Maurice:

The blade byself show nearly features of indonesian blades, is it's origin maybe the north of Kalimantan? I think that the handle pommel have been a small kakatua, what do you think?
All comments are very welcome,
Detlef
