Pictures of a kris for posterity

Dear All,

I would be very glad to hear your oppinion on this one. Original asang-asang (and probably the whole hilt) was another one, and there are some interesting markings at least on one side of the blade, something like a twistcore, ornament or letters. Could it really be from beginning of 19. cent., or is here something strange going on?

Length: 19.5 inches (about 49.5 cm).

If it will continue in this way, I will consider a possibility to have an adress in US
