Beautiful blades, I don't see much blades from Bulacan province anymore, blacksmithing traditions seemed to have died out in the province in present-day. I've been to San Miguel more than 10 years ago, pretty rural town.

I agree. It seems that blade making in Bulacan died out in the 1970s and 1980s. I have a nice example from the pre-WWII era that was discussed here.
