Default Philippine bolo markings?

Hi Guys

A couple of years ago I won a bid on an old bolo possibly WW2 vintage. The bolo had a strange set of markings on the blade which I thought was the makers mark. Last week I picked up another bolo which seemed more recently made and it turns out that it has the same markings on the blade. Can any of you Philippine weapons collectors shed some light on these swords? The bolo on the bottom is the newer of the two.
