A INTERESTING MAK FOR DISCUSSION
I SUSPECT THE ORIGION OF THIS FORM IS LIKELY INDO-CHINA, CAMBODIA, LAOS, VIETNAM ,ECT. BUT THAT IS JUST A GUESS ON MY PART. THIS SORT OF WEAPON /TOOL IS PREVELANT IN QUITE A FEW AREAS AND COMES IN QUITE A FEW VARIATIONS. TO MY KNOWLEGE THERE HAS NOT BEEN A COMPREHENSIVE REFRENCE DONE ON THEM.
THE PANABUS OF THE PHILIPPINES IS THE ONE MOST DISCUSSED HERE ON THE FORUM BUT THE MAK OF THAILAND HAS BEEN MENTIONED. THERE ARE SEVERAL VARIATIONS OF THE PHILIPPINE PANABAS SO IT IS LIKELY DIFFERENT VARIATIONS AND FORMS ARE TO BE FOUND IN OTHER COUNTRYS AS WELL. ANY INFORMATION, COMMENTS OR PICTURES OF OTHER FORMS WELCOME. HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF AN EXAMPLE RECENTLY SOLD ON EBY. |
