Maurice, where is this "kris". It is behind glass so i am assuming it is in a museum somewhere. If so, what info does the museum give on it?

David, it was at the tribal art fair "Parcours des Mondes" in Paris. It was at a very small gallery which was closed all day when present. Therefore I coudn't ask any questions.

We can't see the very tip in these photos Maurice. Did it have a little hook extension like a kampilan?

That because the tip was behind the window frame. It had no protrusion like the kampilan.
