David, Jose: I agree with you both that too often we ascribe every little line on a moro kris as well as other weapons to be "talismanic" in some way. Sadly in most cases, we will never really know the intent of these engravings..........Dave.

Albert: I just got this one about a month ago, so i didn't have it at Eugene. There is something "pleasing to the eye" about this kris. I just haven't figured out what it is.............Dave.
