The Indonesian 'Kris'
The Indonesian Kris is a cultural masterpiece created by the forefathers of the Indonesian nation. Originally the Kris was a dagger of asymmetric and detailed design. The Kris was always more of a talisman than a functional weapon, and was worn by heroes throughout Indonesia’s history, up to and including the 1945-1950 fight for Independence. The Kris now has five functions: tradition, social function, art, philosophy, and mystical. Physically, the Kris is in the form of a dagger with a blade 15 cm to 50 cm. Long, sharp on both edges and at the point, broader and asymmetric in shape near the hilt, it is made of a combination of several kinds of metal. Kris blades, hilts, and sheaths are sometimes decorated and inlaid with gold, silver and jewels and thus used as costly gifts on state occasions. The making of a Kris involves many spiritual aspects, not only the practical ones of metal-working.
