More pictures of a different kris of similar construction/assembly (Albeit this one also has the katik and asang-asang missing) that gives us an insight into how my kris was originally constructed, as it still has the metal fitting near the pommel as well as the wire wrapping:

(Also, note the cracks going down the hilt of this one. Similar to the cracks in mine. Perhaps this is a constuction flaw that was common at the time?)
