The blade of this kalis displays undulations across its entire length, as well as flared shoulders and a pierced wing-type guard carved with okir-style serrations. A single asang-asang (fish gill) clamp secures the guard. The kamagong pommel takes the form of a cockatoo (kakatua). The shape and material indicate a functional but less prestigious object compared with ivory and silver examples made for the Tausug or Maranao people.
