The Dagger of an Early Malay Conqueror (15thC Kris)

hi jens,
unfortunately i couldnt copy the article (sorry Shahrial). i stumbled across it whilst involved in reseraching something else and just didnt have time (its not a matter of taking it to a photocopying machine - much more complicted and time consuming).
the reason i posted it was to get a response from the kris guys to see if its worth following up. it wont be easy to do, and will take time (and cost) so i only bother with articles of huge importance (and not passing interest). otherwise i sit there whenever i can and take notes. 2 weeks ago i had just two pages copied and it cost £5 and i had to wait a couple of hours (ok, it was a 250 year old book so not quite the same).
is anyone familiar with this particular piece?

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the pointers! Please give the full reference - maybe others can make xerox copies more easily...

Regards,
Kai

hi kai,
ok, i will try. i have to backtrack my thinking process at the time as i found this article in a book, which i found by looking for another book (if you know what i mean - i spend a lot of my time searching through obscure bibliographies)
will post the full reference when i can find it.

from memory it was a very obsure reference so may not be easy to find.
