Default Any photos on a disassembled Moro Kris?

Hello all,
I am wanting to give a wee show and tell on my Moro Kris at my next Military Arms Society meeting. I was wanting to include a reference to the differences between a Kris and a Keris. Does anyone have (and mind sharing) a set of photos that show a Moro Kris disassembled?
Many thanks

If it does not have to be "disassembled" I saved this picture (it is out of Cato's Moro Swords) when I found it posted on either this site or on Filhistory, Lorenz's wonderful site. Hope it is of some help to you.

Hello,

Have a look at Federico's old page on Moro Swords: http://home.earthlink.net/~federicom...rismaking.html

It was my first introduction to these weapons and still a great resource.

BTW, the pic shown is from our member Lorenz (not out of Cato's book).

Kai, Thank you very much for straightening this out so credit for it can go to who it belongs. I could not remember where I originally found it and because of the information in the lower right hand corner thought it was from Cato's book. My error and my sincere apologies to Lorenz for the mistake.
