Hello,
I am new here but thought I would share my opinion on the Kris dagger Charlie Manson mentions.
I own one which is virtually identical to the picture posted by Charlie Manson and has been in my family for well over 50 years. I have seen posts where people have purchased one for $50-$100.
This knife is a thing of beauty and I would never sell mine that cheaply. Money comes and goes but you just don't see a knife like this every day.
The blade is classic, unlike many other Kris daggers with blades which, to me, are amateurishly made and ugly by comparison.

I have one minus the scabbard if anyone is interested. Send me a message and we can discuss it.
Thanks
