Here a little bit backround information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockfight
And yes, the tubes are from bamboo and agree with you that two look like tourist items. But the others are very nice and interesting ethnograhic items.

Hi Detief, thanks for your reply and for the link. Since finding out what they are for I have done some searching and have not seen anything similar to my boxes for containing the blades. I was hoping that A.G. Maisey would know as he seems to be knowledgeable about these things, in the meantime I will continue searching and if I find anything will let you know.
Regards
Miguel
