I took a chance on this;
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1 The price was low enough as was my bid that the not so great photos did not deter me. (It usually does). Seller advertised as a 20th C battle kris. Well I got it yesterday. It sure is a mystery to me. The gangya is one piece and not very will defined. But it has two baca-baca and is very tight and solid. It has a very sharp edge and appears to have evidence of a hardned edge but does NOT appear to be laminated. There are signs of it having been forged. On one hand I would say tourist piece but the baca-baca and the possible hardened edge say no. What are your thoughts? The gangya is very poorly done. Right now this is the best I can do for photos. I have no idea what this is. |
