It a popularly used blade and the form (with scabbard) are found in many part of the Visayas. It continues to be made, sold and used as a slicing tool. One can see it throughout Panay being used by market stall vendors to slice vegetables which they sell. I also see it being used in Bohol to slice banana trunks into small pieces to be fed to domesticated pigs raised at the backyards of farmers.
