A luzon(?) kris for comment.

Hello all,

A new ebay acquisition. I'm pretty sure it's from the Philippines, and I think, based on the guard that it's from Luzon, but I really don't know much about these.

Seller says that the handle is horn, I'm not certain. The fittings seem like brass.

Clearly it needs some love, and apparently has spent most, if not all of my life time in a box among dozens of other knives. I'm glad it could come out and see the light.

I'm more than happen to hear any comments, opinions, etc that people more knowledgeable than I have on this.

Have fun,
Leif
