Henk etching is mostly ruin the blade there are a lot off different ways to wash an kris .

The problem today is that most people think that they now how to wash an kris that is why so much look like eaten away.

And it looks that telling how old an kris is be difficult for you I invite you to come to one off the meetings of the Dutch kris club and maybe you can learn something about how to wash and not to wash an kris also about age .

The date off my kriss is around 1700



I see a lot off krissen that are more than 600 years old but not eaten away
because they washed properly .

If you wanna learn something about the way let me now I send you the date and time and invite you there . (It is not possible to come there with out an invatation from an member)

It is better there to discus about the kris and age and washing also they can show you things only normally be seen in museums only if you interested .
