Spanish Punal for a lady?

There's two at Victor Balaguer museum, near Barcelona (pics below).

I also two to three such daggers in Museo Oriental in Valladolid, Spain (grouped under the Philippine collection). Thanks.

One of those puppies that is in my collection... I had also a tiny one, but I've sold it as it was very rusted.

Carlos,
Thanks, I've seen the book, but it was a little expensive, and my Spanish is nearly nil!
I think if I lived in Spain I'd have a huge collection of these!

Fixing sails? Thats interesting (although I liked the poison idea better!) What purpose would the brass sheet insert serve? How do you use it with yarn?

migueldiaz,
So those are in a Spanish Museum, but their origin is definately philippine?

Very nice example
