Stunning! I vaguely recall a discussion of a Tenegre with this scabbard type being from a certain region. Anyone remember?

And that was made from a huge file. A rasp I think.

Thank you Lew and Steve

Yes, I'd like to know something more about this piece and its origin

These are usually from the island of Panay in the Visayas. Nice piece and I suspect that there were silver pieces on the head that were later taken off. Nice puppy.
