Ok here are some better(?) close ups:

BTW - I'm thinking that a curl nor a tail decoration existed.

yup, you're right. i'm looking at it as we speak on my desktop. i wish they would've given the size of the pommel. i don't think it's the same size as the one you got from the show last year. what do you think?

I do admit it is odd that the nose break is straight across.....still not sure if it is not the original though.

the pommel on that kris is the streamlined version. compare that to the attached picture below. notice it's missing the details on the chicken's head, and also the feather ukkil that runs down the tail. here they are, side by side for comparison...
