Hi, all,
Sorry it's taken so long to respond! Sheeesh.
Fact is, I don't own the kampilan in question. It belongs to an online friend who only sent me the one photo. She had no clue what it was, and so I appreciate all your thoughtful replies. She now knows it's a kampilan, from the Philippines, and that's all she needed.

I'd posted a new thread regarding another blade that I was interested in, but the bidding has shot into the stratosphere, so I'm out of the running. (A very nice, representative sample of the Persian Qajar Khanjar, circa early 20th Century).
