I think it must be a word that sounds like Crease, ruck, pleat - maybe Kriese or Kreese? That sounds like a dirk, knife. (I can't check dictionaries right now).

I think it will be Kreese which I hope is an alternative spelling of Kris/creese/kriss - a Sikh dagger

but I do not have a Chambers to confirm

sounds like crease (ruck)

Thanks - had assumed it was something to do with a reference to 'Kris', but have not been able to find the word (I've looked up all the variant spellings I could think of - no luck yet ....)

Depresion (and JJ) I've hiked my way to Chambers - Kreese it is!

As soon as I said this I found the word! Obviously your magical influence. Thanks again.
