Hello Boswego, well as I mentioned in the other thread, the dating, even the tribal assignment is very hot topic for debate. However, if we went by the theories in Bob Cato's book, I would say your kris would be roughly in the first half of the 19th century. Now of course, that is if the dating theory is correct. It could of course be much older, if the theories do indeed prove to be wrong. Anyways I am glad you found my site useful. Unfortunately I have not updated it for many years. Keep meaning too, but somehow other things keep popping up.
