I was looking at that. I was surprised it didn't go higher

Yes, someone did a very good buy!
I like the field repair on the scabbard, it adds character to the nice sword!

I think the ivory pommel presented a problem for buyers outside the EU.

Nice Moro kris indeed at what auction house was this sold?

Hi Martin,

"Antiquitäten Metz" was the auction house. I'll write you later by email.

Best regards,

Hi Ian,

Here in the EU we have enough collectors and also dealers so the price was still surprising for what it went for!

The blade is pretty dark, I wonder if it’s the original stain.

I also like the native repair.

Good possible. The complete kris is in a very good state with only a little bit of TLC it will look beautiful!
