The view from my monitor, to me the blade looks like it has shallow waves.

I see them too, in the rear half of the blade, the forward half looks straight.

Agreed! Not a sundang espada after all.

Wink MARANAO KRIS?

Hi,

Immediately I did a up-close scrutiny on the blade. yes, there are shallow (upper bakukum/tungo) waves and very shallow waves (lower bakukum/tungo) of the blade. I count 7 waaves which run from neear the start of the hilt up to the middle part of the blade. So, in this case, it is a ranti/luma blade.

Many thanks for the information. Appreciate it.

Kind regards,

Yves
