Default My flyssa arrived

Well, Talibon to be precise. But it's quite a piece of steel. Laminated blade and definately an antique. Beer all around. It's not my interest. Would trade for something from the Arabian Penninsula.

Looks nice, Michael. I like the lamination.

Well....you're right in that it is Filipino, Luzon for sure, but not a talibon....like the lamination.

Could this sword be one of these Pedang Suduk as seen in photos from Theriorn Arms or Oriental-Arms or is it a bolo?
