Another kris fresh from basic clean up!! The Ray skin wrap appears to have been a later addition after the kris was collected. It is solid and feels good in the hand… still very tight. The twist core is visible but not deeply etched. There are marks on one of the baca that may be decorative or talismanic.

Enjoy!!

I'm curious about the length of the large sundang. Also would like your cleaning superpowers.

Clean up #4

Will need to work on the blade a little more and do a better etch but good enough for the 1st pass.

Enjoy!!
