WELL, THIS IS MY BEST MORO KRIS I HAVE, THE PICTURES ARE FROM EBAY, BUT THERE ARE GOOD PICTURES. LENGHT WITH THE SCABBARD 28.5 INC, BLADE 23.5 INC.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT!! CARLOS |
Congrats, Carlos - a very nice kris! I especially like the baca-baca.
I assume you're going to clean and etch the blade? I'd love to see pics of the blade after that... ;) |
Yes very nice. I would venture Maranao in origin. Looks like the scabbard is missing one band. Blade could use some etching to bring out patterns.
|
Yes, Carlos. That one! Nice. :)

How can I clean and etch the blade? Thanks |
Well, traditionally you could heat up the blade (low heat) and apply vinegar and lime (or lemon) juice on the blade, then wiping it off. You could also use a quicker (but needing more care) with Radio Shack etchant (1/4 acid - 3/4 distilled water). If you use the latter, rinse off the stuff and rub with baking soda to neutralize the acid.
