Hello! Just an update on this thread-
"Dahong bolo" and "dahong buho" refer to different kinds of bamboo (kawayan) cultivated by Tagalog farmers, hence they also refer to different blade profiles. Another term for "dahong bolo" is "Tagalog bolo." The blade profile in the Atienza paper is confirmed by oral tradition. Info credits to a Laguna-based panday who was taught by Laguna elders regarding the bolo-making traditions, Christian Regalario. Laguna is just adjacent to Batangas, it's a known fact that many blade profiles (and terminologies) were shared by the Tagalog provinces. |
