Bagobo Sword?

[Jerseyman]

I think this is Bagobo. A laminated steel blade, half brass hilt with a brass wrapped pommel nut. The hilt was once stained black. The upper scabbard is wrapped with a narrow woven fabric strip. Stable crack in the hilt.

Yes. Unfortunately many collectors in Europe and the US through their scabbards away, only regarding the blade and hilt valuable. :mad:
