I understand about the "naming" issue in general and I've been following all the various threads in the forum that relate to that topic.

My key question is whether the "tuba" knife with the straight edge is regarded as "the same" type of knife as the "sanggot" knife with the concave edge? Are these just different names used in different places?

Or, Is this another case like the generic term "parang" where lots of differently shaped blades are conceptually grouped together?

Any insight?

Thanks.
