Hi SL,
As others have noted, the premise of your question is not true. If you look on this site, you will find excellent examples of recently made as well as antique/vintage examples of non-Moro weapons that show great skill in their manufacture and decoration. Not only Visayan and Luzon examples, but also pieces from the Lumad (non-Christian/non-Muslim) tribes of Mindanao. I've not seen the comments you mention about non-Moro weapons. Where have you found them?
Ian.
