Beautiful kris
Welcome George.
That is a lovely Maranao kris, perhaps early 20th C. from its overall size and style. The central portion with twisted rod construction is particularly well done. The treatment of the edges and tip is similar to a large sword for which I posted pictures recently. http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/attach...tid=6047&stc=1 http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/attach...tid=6048&stc=1 My sword was commissioned in 1930 from a panday in Lanao del Sur by a U.S. administrator.
