OK, here's a few pics after my initial "soft touch" cleanup. Only used mild oil on the handle and blade.

It's looking better already. Like everyone, I too like that copper plate on the handguard.
Can you post photos of the kris. It looks like a nice one. |

Here are the pics. It did not look this good initially. Was heavily rusted and bent.
