Default Philippines displays

Here are some of my Philippine weaponry displays.

The first 2 are Moro, and the last one is Kalinga, one of the Igorot tribes in the north. I made all of the displays by hand (and not by foot ). Enjoy . Photo credits: Rsword (maraming salamat )

Battara,
Absolutely beautiful displays. If you would, please post more information and show more pictures of the armour.

Battara,

Isn't that one of those rare Barongs with kamagong hilt with inlaid ivory?
Could you please post a close up for us to admire?

Thank you folks. Been wanting to do this for a while.

Here is a link on Federico's site for the kris in the display:

And here is the link for the barong (yes VVV, it is one of those rare barongs ):

I will post more closeups of the kris (possibly barong if can find them) and the armour in the next couple of days.

Here are closeups of the kris with ivory, silver, and swaasa. I made the scabbard from scratch.
