I think you guys are right.

This "Thai Pra" blade design IS strikingly close to a Moro Panabas, it's nearly impossible that there is no link between them. I do find it interesting that every culture between the geographic distant of the Moros and the Thais don't have an axe/sword that are closely resembling either a Panabas or a Thai Pra however.

I personally prior believed that the Igorot "Binaroy" axe had a link with the Moro Panabas or at least the Tabas (agricultural version), was either the Panabas or at least Tabas common all throughout the Philippines at one point or no?

Thanks,
