Dear Robert,

no mistake, I just think it's extremly difficult with the terminology by Visayan swords, there are so many languages in the Visayas and I think that you only have to go to a other village and the same sword is named different.
And you are correct, a sword like shown in the picture is just a Binangon and a sword with deity hilt is a Binangon which also can be called Tenegre or Talibong when the blade has a clipped point.

Regards,
Detlef
