Moro kris for comment

Thanks for the kind words Detlef and Kai!

Detlef, I tried fitting several "extra" asang-asang I have here, but they're all too slim for the blade- the gangya on this one is unnaturally thick. So no asang-asang yet, until I get one that's thicc enough!

The hilt is also more robust than most I've encountered; I like its bare feel and fits my hand exactly already, so I'm keeping it that way.

Kai, thanks for that really informative bit about the blade build of "twistcore" Moro krises and Malay keris!
