I cannot imagine the value of said krisses if provenance can be established!

It's possible but unlikey. You would need strong documented evidence to support a claim of provenance. Most seems to be the word of those who collected the weapon and brought it back. If you had a good clear photo of the weapon with the owner that would go along way to help in tracing it. One of the big problems with Moro weapons is they are not documented. But you are right if provenance can be established the value goes up.
