# 71 is depicted in Cato's "Moro Swords" and looks the same in the article "Swish of The Kris"
http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ighlight=swish I see a book has been published just bought a copy. The kris on the cover does not look like ours I had an online article and the Kris shown is ours. Looking for a copy. My wife, Anne, says I have a twisted core. She is really amazing, studying Bhutanese architecture.

Hi Bill:
The swords are similar but the one on the cover of the book has more luk (7 vs 5 in the sword you show). Ian. |

Yes, the one on the book cover is different. I think my kris was pictured in the online article displayed below. It was on the site in 2007. The link is now defunct. Wish I had saved the article. It was my kris. http://www.bakbakan.com/swishk/swk1-4.html see the discussions here in 2007, when forumites saw it http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ighlight=swish |

YAY! There it is! I thought I saw an article that showed my Kris more distinctly. Showed the talisman markings, but maybe it was a dream. I think it was also 1997, |
