Another small I picked up recently.
Fits very well in the hand.
Comments? It has some conflicting attributes.

Interesting knife. Blade profile look like from a Talibon so I think that this knife is from the Visayas but others will be able to tell you more. What material is the binding at the grip?

Regards,

Yes, the blade is a chisel grind similar to a talibon but much smaller on the line of a pisaw.

The material on the grip appears to be modern gaffers tape of some sort.

What is interesting to me is the handle seems to be more southern in style.
