Mabuhay Rafngard!
Welcome to our little forum!  For the barong, it looks a little older than WWII, although I think it was reinforced with the brass bands in WWII. I would think perhaps 1910s. Could be Samal, but little hard to ascertain for certain depending on age. Regarding the other bolo, I would agree with you that it looks like a form of Visayan garab or talibon, possibly from the 1930s? Better pictures would help. Please post them when the pieces come in. Salamat! |

Hello Battara,
I'll post more pics of the talibon, along with it's brother, in a new thread shortly. I've posted the Barung here before. Right here. http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=20087 Any thoughts on the V.N.<something>. Two very different pieces is a heck of a coincidence. Salamat, Leif |
