Carlos, i think we need better pictures, but i don't think this is a "tourist" kris. The blade looks beefy enough and i think i can just barely make out a seperate gangya and the markinkg on the blade where the baca-baca once was. I have never seen this style of hilt however and doubt it is original to the blade. Needs some work, but it looks like a "real" standard battle kris to me.
