Bicol sword for comment

[Battara]

Sajen, just do a search on this forum for Bicol pieces and you will see other examples.

You are right - there is not much out there on Bicolano pieces, unfortunately.

Purchased another Bicol sword recently, at least I think it is one. The blade form is the same as from two others I own and the handle is a stylized inaso.

Here some pictures.

A photo showing the thickness of the blade at the hilt would be useful for reference/comparison purposes.

Hello Bob,

I am not able to take a picture since I don't have the sword not yet in my hands but here is one where you can see that the blade has a similar thickness as the both others with the general same blade shape.

Here two additional pictures I just received. The thickness from the spine near the handle is similar to the other both with identical blade shape.
