Default And again a kris!

Just win another kris by epray.
I don't have a clue from where this blade; maybe Sulu? As age I would guess end of 19th century?
Blade have silver inlays and until now I can't remember to have seen an "elephant trunk" design like this before.
This kris need a lot of restoration, new asang-asang and the bands of of the handle including the binding. Jose, you would like to do it? I don't plan to restore the broken crest of the pommel since the break seems to be old and patinated. What you think?

Your comments are very welcome,

Detlef
