Two Luzon pieces for ID
4 Attachment(s)
I did quite a bit of searching through the forum but couldnt find anything that closely resembled either of these.Anyone know what these are called/who used them?
The larger one is huge {relatively}, the grip is the biggest of any of my PI pieces.the ferrule and the pommel are copper on this one,which seemed a little unusual to me. 25.75in overall The small one is 16in overall,but the tip is snapped off,it has seen a lot of use/abuse.I read that some of these were used to split wood,by hammering on the spine of the knife with a rock,this seems applicable to this one, to me. |
Zelbone and Labantayo (and even Ian) could give you better ID for these. I know that they are from Luzon (like you mentioned in the title) and would venture a guess of Batangas based on the handles.

Hello Justin,
The smaller knife seems too small to be routinely used for wood chopping/splitting IMHO. Regards, Kai |
