Twistcore kris with... erm.. Wha-- What is this?

[kai]

Hello Ron,

it's obvious that it's not a traditional handle, but the moros of your has been known to use non-traditional items on their weapon.

I suspect this hilt make the kris pretty much dysfunctional.

I also have a very hard time to imagine any self-respecting Moro to come up with this weird pommel, a bad (smooth) grip wrapping, and, especially, with 2 human figures representing a kind of deity outside the Muslim realm? This just doesn't cut it, IMHO.

Regards,
Kai
