SULU-TAUSUG KRIS

Hi friends,

sharing my father's collection of a Tausug kris. This was collected in Zamboanga City in 1980.

Probable age? Looks like the rattan weave on the entire scabbard was an 80s addition?

Enjoy and regards,

Yves

I would agree that the blade is Sulu, but the whole thing was made in the 1950s up through today.
