So, aside from binakoko, apparently Tagalogs and Hiligaynon-speaking Visayans also share kinabasi, though the Tagalog ones are usually shorter than this but the profile is more or less the same.

Interesting to see that the Tausug has a Tagalog-style hilt from Rizal, I've seen a similar hilt before by a certain blacksmith from Binangonan.

If this was indeed a Moro blade, it's probably a "janap", sometimes they also call it "utak" which is a cognate of the Tagalog term "itak". The edge seems to look similar.

P.S. The one at the top...

That's a talibong, a sinuwak/bakutan profile. Probably Aklanon, from Aklan province, Philippines.

As far as I know, Maori don't have metal weapons, I could be wrong though.

Yes, that's a Bicolano hilt. "Inayam" (dog-like) is the term they use for it, I think.

It reminds me of what they call "Tinari/Binulang" in Waray-speaking areas of Eastern Visayas, Philippines. Though your scabbard and hilt look different.

Similar blades in the Philippines that have...

Always interesting to see hybrid Filipino blades. I remember seeing kris with traditional hilt from Aklan or Iloilo and another one with traditional hilt from Rizal, it never looks bad.

They have good craftsmen, I knew of this one that makes exquisite carvings, probably the best one I've seen among all Filipino carvings. Very intricate.
