Thank you for your interest and imput Gentlemen
Were kris pruduced by empu? I find the quality and artistry a testament to the skill of its maker. Battara, thanks for the Sulu confirmation
Rick, no problems, I was waiting for the hammer to fall David, Spot on I thought some of the metal looked like it was designed to take a pamor stain. I wondered if such cross polination of staining etching techniques could have been used in period. Curiosity got the better of me and these are the result.I was surprised to get result. I mean no disrespect by my use of warangan on this blade. To me it look quite stunning in hand, camoflaged too
Thanks for your replies Mross, Hello PenangsangII
What are the geometric sparkles/crystals in blade?

Thanks for the communication,

Dan
