No need to link to the same site again. We can all see what the guy in yellow is holding. A serpentine blade is not a requirement for a kris BTW. No one is saying that. Though i would be willing to bet that the blade in that guy's sheath is in fact wavy. But let me say this again...and please, let it sink in. If it doesn't have an asymmetrical blade with a gonjo feature (separate or otherwise), it...is
NOT...a kris. Clearly the width of the sheath on the blades you link to do
NOT provide enough space for this feature. Therefore, these are
NOT kris. What about this don't you understand?
