It seems to me, this could be a possibility to explain the different fullers, the slightly curved blade and also the probably reshaped tip. Accidentaly also some of the decorations at the base of the blade are similar.
A couple of links to similar blades: http://anthro.amnh.org/anthropology/...70.1%2F%207745 http://anthro.amnh.org/anthropology/...70.1%2F%209197 |

And the big minus of my "theory": in this case the narrower fuller should be on the other side... Neverthless I suppose, the original tip could have been some kind of asymetrical regarding those fifferent fullers.

hmmm, good point gustav. even if the blade has not been reshaped, it is indeed odd to see the narrower fuller being closer to the inner blade.
btw, thank you for the link! some very unusual and one of a kind krises on that album! seems to have a few of the Robot Kris variety on there as well... http://anthro.amnh.org/anthropology/...%2F%204151%20A |
