Thanks for the information on the generals and the price of the plaque(I think it was a great price for the buyer).
I was wondering about the double headed spear myself, which to me seems to be more African in nature ;I have one that resembles that one, but with 4 heads. |

I've had this for many years.
It originally came with a collection of Luzon and Visayan sandata. |

i believe the double headed spear is known as "dua sanga", per Andson Cowie's book English-Sulu-Malay Vocabulary

Hello All,
Apologies if the answer is obvious, but do we know anything about this one? It almost looks like a Sangi and a Barong had a baby. Thanks, Leif |

It could be a small bladed panabas with cut down handle!?

You're right the handle does look a lot like a Panabas. Let me update our story. A barong and a sangi had a baby and it was adopted by a panabas who later moved to Spain. Oh, and I assume the horizontal thing isn't a crossguard, but a piece of leather which is holding the baby to the plaque. Do people agree? Thank, Leif |
