Hi guys. Yes, it could very well be Bagobo, hadn't thought of them. How
far in terms of distance are these two groups. Have the Bagobo ever been known to have done a twist-core, or do you think this blade was done by a moro maybe for some kind of a presentation piece. I also thought the handle was Vasayan and the carving is much better when seen in person. The blade is 19 inches long a a quarter inch at the guard.........Dave. |

Dave that is a good question. Not sure, although my example is the only one I know that has a double twistcore. I would not be surprised if this were traded from Moros since they are were known to make and trade them.
