I have had my Sulu silver hilted kris in my first scabbard made with silver mounts "borrowed" (without permission) onto a book on the Maguindanao printed in the PI.

Mine is the one from Cato's book. The date on the online publication is 1997-1998. So if it is mine they used it before I bought it. Would still like confirmation from the publisher if it is mine. I think it is.

They are certainly welcome to use it anyhow.

Speaking of borrowed, I got this Bali keris from Erik Farrow when I first started collecting about 5 years ago. (Left panel)

Erik emailed me a few years later to say that it was for sale on eBay! It was! The same picture from Erik's site!!!! I emailed eBay and told them about this fraud. Ebay pulled the ad.
