Howzit Spunger, Kemoh is the giant clam (Tridacna). The Kakatua is carved from the shell of the giant clam. I don't know of a Pilipino term for it. Kemoh, is what the Indo/Malays (?) calls it.
Just wondering if there are other Moro weapons with Kemoh hilts out there. Giant clams were plentyful back in the day. We had a few for yard decor.

Go Seahawks............
