And here together with a very similar one my friend got recently, the one from him is a little bit more heavy but seemingly from the same workshop.

Sharing a similar recent acquisition
Coincidentally I just received this similar bolo - there are some differences of course but they appear to belong to the same “family”. The end of the sheath is open. The notorious “katana” of central Luzon perhaps?

Thank you Ray! Would you agree that the both shown bolos are from the 19th century? And is the handle form typical for Pangasinan?Regards, Detlef |
