Recent purchase in Manila-Mandaya?

It's a Bagobo knife called a Sangi. I've seen it described as a work knife, woman's knife & a grass knife. I've seen only pictures of men carrying it, either slung from the shoulder or in the small of the back. I don't know if it generally carried anymore or not. They pop up on ebay mostly from Davao City, where it seems a lot of newer Bagobo items come from.
