Highly unlikely that we will ever see an authentic antique (100yrs+) Kris made entirely from wootz .
Having said that I do wonder why not though what with the extensive trade throughout the area . Wootz cakes must have been available in the main trading ports .
Moro Pandays lacked knowledge of the forging process ?
They believed their steel was superior ?
The patterning wasn't important to them ? .........
I'll bet Mr. Pendray could make a beautiful contemporary kris blade from wootz ..............
