Hello Gustav,
Wow, that's really, really nice! Did you win the lottery recently?

At 59,4 cm quite huge. It has 6 bars at the base of blade, the highest number I have seen on Kris so far, and 4 bars until the tip. The welding is done remarkably well.

Yes, excellent pamor control with a neat solution at the tip!
Also the shaping and fuller work is top notch. We do need a green with envy emoji!
Size is common for Maguindanao kris; looks like an early 20th century piece to me.
No scabbard surviving?
Regards,
Kai
