It would be interesting if there was a good in-depth comparison between the blades of the Taiwanese aborigines, the Cordillera groups in Luzon, the Waray-waray in the Visayas, and the Dyaks of Borneo. In fact I have no doubt that if 4 members on this forum decided to do that, they have enough prime examples in their collections that it would definitely be possible.

 Thanks for the virtual money ... and I'll be (virtually) forever grateful! 
 
Yes, the Japanese did interact a lot with Luzon, and of course the Arabs did the same in Mindanao.
And I hope too that other members in the forum can show more Dyak blades which can be demonstrated to be related to some of the Philippine pieces
