A pity that they aren't easier to see from the pictures.
I have this bolo that, based on Hein's old book, is supposed to be tribal and from Luzon?
Do you recognise it from any of your sources?

Hi Michael,
I'm not familiar with the form as I'm still a budding collector
It appears though, based on the pics earlier posted in this forum (the ones taken at Madrid museum/s), that it's also possible that they are Visayan (i.e., from central Philippines).
But I'm not really sure about that. I'm sure the others more familiar with the nuances of the forms can comment much more competently.
Regards.
