A Keris for slashing...

Thanks for that explanation Thilo, I understand perfectly.

I keep not only arsenic, but all other hazardous substances around the house under lock and key, and only I have the key.

I've found that wives can sometimes be as vacuous as young children --- but if you're asked, I never said that.

Here are some impressions of the keris just after cleaning. The staining is still from the fruit acids of the pineapple juice (or possibly from residual arsenic as Alan wrote).

Best Regards,
Thilo
