I posted this one five years ago. At the time, it was discussed that the Mandaya attribution was probably wrong, and that this was more likely a Maranao piece made in the mid-20th C. Having seen a few more of this type, I'm even more inclined to label it as Maranao, even though it may have been collected from a Mandayan man.

Similar upturned ends to the guard.
