A strange kalis ???
1 Attachment(s)
Hi all,
I bought recently the book "contribution a l'étude des armes orientales" by P. Holstein. In the Plate XLVII there is a strange "kalis of Sulu"; I never saw a similar one before (it looks to me it has a twisted core blade). Might someone tell me something more about this weapon ? (Sorry for the worst pic, but the catalogue is of the 1930). A Good Easter Paolo |
Wow!!! never seen one like this before!!!! seems a mix between a kris and a barong :confused: :confused: Thanks to show the picture, Paolo :)
BUONA PASQUA :) |

Hi Paolo,
That one also has puzzled me. I found another one, slightly resembling, in the Tropen picture archive. Michael |
These 2 "sabre kris" are neat high-end pieces! I've also seen plain single-edged kris and will try to post pics for reference.
Regards, Kai |
