Keris .... Kris... ? Ivory tulip pommel?? Help!

Although I have several inherited Moro weapons, I am new at this and am letting my ignorance hang out here... I see the terms KERIS and KRIS both used, but it seems like they are not the same thing. Can someone explain which is which? Also, does anyone have a picture of a Moro kris (keris?) with an ivory "tulip" pommel. Would appreciate a picture, if possible.

Thanks for any and all answers!

Kris is used to refer to the sword of the Moro in this forum .

To the best of my knowledge this is a tulip style pommel .
