When I visited one of my regular local sword dealers in Manila a few eyars ago, he had a similar kris without the filework on the greneng. He said this was likely a kris made in a hurry for someone, such as for an imminent conflict, and that it was lost before the greneng could be completed. Makes sense, but who knows if it applies here.
