			This one turned up at a collectors meeting, just as I was looking for something like it. The square-ish tang makes me think Philippines, but the narrow, hollow ground section gives  me pause for thought. It is very much a stabber and mail piercing blade rather than the broader bladed spears that seem more typical. 
		
		
		
			I punched it through some card to show the X section more clearly.  |
