Kai: Very interesting pictures. The last kris in the series has the arrows in the same manner, pointing inward to the center of the blade, and then having the arrows on the ganjya point at the handle. These are the only two krises that i've ever seen with this type of inlay motif, and i think they are definitely talismanic............Dave.
