I purchased this knife some time ago. It looked interesting, but I honestly don't know what it is. I guess it's from the Philippines, but that's just a guess. Any help would be welcome.
This knife measures 45 cm, with a blade of 33,5 cm. As you can see, the handle is in the form of a man's head (with moustache). The eyes are made of two pieces of ceramic. There's a metal ferule and a cross bar with one end pointing upwards and one end pointing downwards. The blade is very strong with a thick middle section. The edges are not very sharp, so I think it was more some kind of stilletto (or main gauche ?)
It has a leather covered wooden sheath.
I think it's not a newly made piece as the head shows quite some patina. The leather on the sheath also looks old.
Here are some pics :
