Well, my first comment is that the pictures suck, but if, as i suspect, you are the winner of this secret ID auction i am sure we will see much better photos from the studio of Bill Marsh soon.
Inspite of the bad pics it looks like a very nice and hefty blade and the silver hilt looks lovely.
BTW Bill, if you don't have an heir to your Moro treasures yet i am available for adoption.

Lovely puppy, Bill. Nice chasing work. I think the work is a little later than the blade, but still not recent. One of the best kris silver heads I have seen. Can't wait for the better pics.
