Default Show us your "other" Visayan swords

For this forum, I've noticed that the Visayan blades that tend to be focused are the garab, tenegre, and talibong.

I'm wondering if forum members would have other Visayan swords such as sansibar and pinuti.

Just like other PH tradblades, sansibar and pinuti have their own sub-species (or variants). I'm uploading mine as a reference-point for those who want to share theirs as well (or to help others ID theirs).

In the black-background pic, the upper one is pinuti (Cebu), while the lower one is a sansibar (this sword is Leyte-exclusive).

The white-background pic features a sansibar, a vintage and different variant than the first one.

Looking forward to other members posting their "other" Visayan swords too!
