Recently won this on ebay. It was incorrectly listed as a persian sword. I believe it's from Luzon and a friend of mine who owns a similar piece says that in the visayas, it's categorized as a "binangkoko".
Most likely just refered to as an "Itak" or "bolo" around luzon, I was curious if it had a specific term locally. Heck, where were these made exactly? How old would this example be? The hilt is horn and the fittings, according to the seller, are silver. One side is missing a silver panel. here are the vendor's photos. Any info would be helpful. Thanks! |
