A friend who's from Panay Island in the Visayan region showed me recently his antique sanduko, per pics below.

If these long-nosed sandukos got this trait from Pinocchio, then the one below would probably be the biggest liar of them all

The metal cladding of the hilt is all made of silver fashioned from old coins.

[Spunjer, thanks for this thread. I've haven't been to the Iloilo Museum, and your pics provide a good primer.]
