dimasalang, thanks for the pics!

hiking in bohol in the visayas one day, i've seen a sundang with such a similar fish tail-looking scabbard (pic attached).

in this post where i mentioned about an anthropology professor citing the possible explanation for the bronze inlays in certain blades, the prof said that is his home province in panay, we can also see such characteristic fish tail-shaped scabbard tips. i can't remember now whether he said it was aklan or capiz province.
