Hello all!
Recently aqcuired this Kris and was wondering about its origins. Doesn't look Mindanao or Sulu to my (untrained and inexperienced) eyes. It does have a separate ganja. I'm guessing the baca-baca is white brass or some type of low grade silver. Would the "fish scale"-like pattern on the baca-baca or the shape of the kakatua pommel be any indication of its origins?
