Here are the pictures from my tabak with similar handle.
I think that the tabak is also from Ilocos sur, correct? And another question regarding the name "sinan-kapitan", I found the source for this name: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...=sinan-kapitan It seems that this name is given due to the handle style. The blade style seems to be an other thing, correct? |

I never have shown this small bolo with cleaned blade. Sadly is the nose missing partly.

Hi Detlef:
This is also a nice example of an Ilokano knife, probably early to mid-20th C. Ian. |

thank you for comment and confirming the Ilokano origin, it's the same one as shown in post #1 but now with cleaned blade, just want to show how it look now.  It has received also a mild etch and show now a hardened edge.Best regards, Detlef |
