Hello Algelan,
Very nice family pic!
BTW, did you showed us the kris at the bottom already?
Congrats to the new addition!
I have a hunch that the blade might be Sulu rather than Marano - could you please add a close-up of the gangya area taken directly from above, please?
The cross-piece is definitely Sulu; the scabbard silver bands look restored to me from the pics (despite some dings).
I do wonder whether the hilt got married to the blade at a later time (maybe abroad)? The last band with okir seems a tad large, too. Any hints it might be an older replacement? (Looks like genuine Moro craftsmanship though.)
Just speculating a bit to hear your thoughts - pics can be deceiving.
Regards,
Kai
