Kris/Kalis with straight blade

Actually Kai some baca- baca were soldered to the strips on Magindanao pieces.

I agree with taking some of those bands off, like the scalloped one. And yes I have a kris once belonging to Datu Piang that has a solid silver Proposal: would it be helpful to get the letter on hospital letter head and FedEx'd to the place?Ganga.

In my collection somewhere i have an old twist-core that has a copper gangya. In general though i think blades with a different type of metal in the gangya have to be fairly rare........Dave.

Yes Dave. So far as I can tell they are fairly rare.
