Hello Jose,
Yes, the blade seems "macho" enough to fit well with a Maguindanao origin...  I forgot to ask Ben how long the blade actually is. If this is a large blade, then the hilt seems more like a one and a half hander...  What's the earliest dated blade with such sharp/pointy start of the 2nd curve that you've seen, Jose? Regards, Kai |

Hello Ben,

Seems like a later rendition of an "archaic" kris style to me. BTW, those other 2 kris are also nice, especially the one with the brass hilt. Could you also post pics of these in separate threads? Thanks! Regards, Kai |
