Great sword Xas. I've heard of these but never seen one before. Very unusual blade form and clearly intended as a cutting rather than a stabbing weapon. The substantial blade length seems to be characteristic of several WWII swords in the Philippines.


Have you seen any other examples of this particular sword?
