Philippine Insurrection Sword and something else
I just received 2 items that I won at auction.The one sword is 23" and what I believe to be a Philippine Insurrection Sword,and the other item is a very large dagger(15.5 "), which I originally thought was also Philippine, but now, I am not so sure. The dagger has Mediterranean flavor to it, which could be the Spanish influence, but the leather on the scabbard looks like the same leather on some of my kindjals.The sheath also looks like it might have had a round finial on the end which could place it in the Caucasus region.
Any opinions would be appreciated .
