Kris with silver inlaid blade

Kai: As far as i can tell, i think most of the dots are in line. Up near the tip
a few might not be quite in line. hard to tell. The blade is 20 inches long.
The pommel is four inches from crest to beak and not quite 2 inches long.
It does indeed look like a cross between jungayyan and danganan.
About equal influence i would say.........Dave.

Jose: The pommel is definitely elephant ivory.. I have a barong with walrus
ivory that i will be posting soon. You will be able to very clearly see the
differences between the two kinds......Dave.
