My first kris :)

[migueldiaz]

Hi all,

Am new around here and am very new to collecting edged weapons for that matter.

So finally I bought this kris which kept appearing in my dreams ever since I saw its pics.

The hilt is gold-"plated" with repoussed okir design. Pommel is ivory and blade's laminated structure can be discerned.

Overall length is 630 mm [24.8"] and blade length is 512 mm [20.1"].

Attached are pics sent by the seller before I made the purchase.

Would appreciate any comments and observations ... even negative as I guess we are all here to learn.

Thanks in advance!
