I'd welcome any opinions about age, location, etc. One specific question I have is regarding the Tenegre: it has two sets of two parallel marks along the back edge ( I tried to photograph it as best I could). I didn't want to read two much into, but is it possible that they could be "victory marks" (for lack of a better term)? I have the feeling that marks like these have been discussed before - if someone has a link to an old discussion I would appreciate it.
Hullo everybody,

The top one looks like a form of Visayan Binagong.

Best,
