Default Crazy weird blades. Philippines or Mainland SEA?
Hello,

I was watching these puppies on the bay and hoping to get them. Bidding went relatively high and Oriental-Arms got them.
So what are they? I recall seeing such creatures before but cannot recall where. The turned handles suggest some not-too old mainland SEA origin, but the panabas-like blade look Filipino, notwithstanding the integral bolster.

Thoughts?
