Comments on the blade of this Moro Kris?

The horn tip is unusaul, more like Sumatra work, but then again there is no end to the uniqueness of Moro pieces. If things have been altered on this sword, the person who did them, knew what they were doing.[/QUOTE]

I must agree with bill the scabbard looks to be Indonesian in style to me. Could you post a close up of the hilt? This could be an older kris that was reworked at a later date.
