He was writing at an angle. Compare with the last vord in the Moon circle in the preceding folio. The preceding vord is y, with a very short tail - looking awkward for the same reason.

I can easily see the first symbol as k, just with its two legs being too close to each other, effectively merging in one another, and the last three as iin. What's in between it's difficult to say due to the blot (which appeared due to his writing at an inconvenient angle).

It's interesting how differently people can perceive things.

Even though I've created four transcripts and looked at every glyph numerous times and have noticed many variations in the shapes of letters, I cannot see that being a k. Nothing about it looks like k to me.

The back is curved. The loop is too large. The second leg, in my opinion, simply isn't there.

   

I see long-ess at the beginning (with long-f or loop-ell being other options) and double-story "a" at the end. The others seem like they could be many things but there's nothing in there that looks like Voynichese to me.
