The one on the bowie is a bit decayed and I'm unsure exactly what's going on, structurally (then I am in a hurry). The tab type feature is seen on Mexican work, for sure, and is reminiscent of scabbard slides/catches from both Europe and Asia. The slanty belt loops commonly seen out of Luzon are essentially identical to Latin American suspensions, and seem to be derived of medieval European types.....random thoughts; no time..............wall phone socket thingy still broken...............
