I'm no expert on these. I used to have the info on it, but it's been lost over time. I will update this soon, but for now, it's Jawan, 7 lucky waves, original fittings and old scabbard of timaho (?) wood. The pamor is wos wutah.
Asking $175

I'm trying for better pictures as well...

OK, now $150 and a lot less than what I bought it for 20 years ago. No after-Christmas shoppers??

Hi Eley, just saw your post. This look like an interesting piece. Where did you get this Kris from? Can you take a close up view of the blade pls.

Happy New Year!

Regards, Azman

Hello Azman,

I bought it in 1993 for $195 from a Frederick's Swords catalog book (back in the days when he still published a catalog). I had sent pics of this one and another to Alan Maisey years ago, who had told me all about it (of course, I have lost the info- ). I will try to get closer view of the blade for you.
