Many thanks to those of you who replied to me. I appreciate it greatly and apologize for not getting back to you sooner. I believed that it would send me an email when someone replied, but it did not.
If by the base you are referring to the top part of the hilt, then I believe it is a dark wood material!
If you would like me to attach more specific photos of the blade, I would be happy to do that! Anything to get some more information on the Kris.
Thank you for the suggestions on cleaning it. I will start off with a toothbrush and slowly see if I can remove some of the staining.
If I can ask one more question, why are there holes in the grip of the Kris? Were those intentional?
Many thanks for your thoughts and time again.
