Ashkenaz,
I hope that some of the comments here will help you change people's minds about the quality of Filipino
sandata, and convince them that excellent edged weapons were made by non-Moro groups for many centuries. How else would they have survived Moro attacks over the years?
While acknowledging that Moro weapons were often of fine quality, those of other Filipino groups need to be respected too.
