Been there, done that. Moro kris and kampilans have a taste for blood. Hope that yours is now satiated.
I got bit polishing a Moro blade --- yesterday. Not bad, but makes me more wary. I also noted a peculiar thing when I went back today, the blood that fell on the blade, even though completly dry and 24 hours later, was still bright red, not the usual dark red.
Maybe it was the oil I was using with the sandpaper ---- or maybe--- <ominous music>.
I cleaned it off, I have heard that blood will really rust a blade quickly.
We have to constantly remember these blades were made to cut.
