What I find unique about this bolo is it has some habaki like thing on the blade which looks as if it is made of one piece of brass. I have never seen anything like this before on a Luzon bolo. The blade is regular steel and I can see in good light a nice temper line. Seems to be WW2 or earlier. We will need the Philippine weapons guys to chime in on this strange beast.
