Thanks migueldiaz, that is very useful information. If you look at the seller's completed listings, you'll see he was also selling 4 spears that I believe identify as Bontoc, so I'm not sure quite what he's referring to as the "South Pacific" but I think this axe didn't come from anywhere unusual, tourist or not.
As soon as I get it I'll be able to measure the thickness, although I am hopeful since there does appear to be a decent bevel on the edge of the one I purchased...
