G'day

Thank you for your interest and thoughts and link.
Hang in there Tim,It will be worth the wait I think.
Bill Marsh, Thank you for sharing pieces from your collection. I always look forward to your posts.
Battara,Stones description states Cotobatto as an origin for a similiar example, is this an island?
Bill, great info! Were other weapons also arsenal produced?
Speculation regarding crescent spike: Could this have been used to position/control the neck in a formalized execution setting? I have read both kampilans and panabas' were used in this role.
Hideyoshi, Fantastic pieces!
Thanks again for all replies the communication is appreciated.

Kind regards,

Daniel

Cotobato is on the West coast of Mindanao Island, I think Maguindanao country.
