Hi Amuk,
Thank you for the link and info. It led me, at last, to the specs (below) for the kris that Gustav cited in post #21 - yours, I take it.
Mine is a little shorter (57 cm & 11 waves) but the overall construction and inlay logic seem very similar.
What especially caught my attention: both seem unusually (?) stout at 1.5 and 1.6 cm.

Curious about your opinion on the comparison and any thoughts you're willing to share.
