Apologies for the mis quote Alan, I was referring to the keris Gustav presented, just loosely speaking...the first image is a rather acute cut away where more traditional lines flow through this area in a nice sweeping curve.. the second one, whilst not a pronounced cut away, does exhibit some features that are aligned with the von Sulz keris... to my eye at least...
