First of all, thank you for a great information!
The handle material by the one which started this thread I would describe as green horn. The spine is near the handle 8,4 mm thick and has an interesting marking there, see picture.
The upper one in the last two pictures has a handle from kamagong, ferrule is iron, like by the other one, spine thickness near the handle is 12,3 mm (!).
Sadly are both without scabbard. Would you call the blade shape by the upper one dinahong palay?
Best,
