Hi,

An elegant piece! The blade certainly has reasonably some age (early 20 c.)? I agree that the hilt wrapper has been coming in so much later time and I believe yor kris has saperate ganya and sea ivory pommel.

I cannot give any further comments on style or origin since my limited experience with Moro pieces, but I like the blade groove, very unique and adds the overall characters.

Any plan to etch the blade?

Thanks!
