Rob,

Here is another Spanish colonial knife from the Philippines. Unfortunately, the blade has been polished to mirror brightness by a previous owner. I don't think you would call this a "Bowie" but it does have a fairly large blade of about 10.5 in. and a guard. There is an unsharpened false edge along the distal part of the blade's spine.
