Ouch! I don't know about that Spunjer. I've seen a few Pangtuli-tuli Panabas in Mandawe.They were a bit smaller than the dimensions Panday stated. I remember a few Pisot's walking towards the guy with the Panabas.

Kino, according to Cato the Angel of Death Panabas "Malkalmaut" claimed over a thousand heads, now it puzzles me, I wonder how many Pisot's did mine claimed? Man, that's ritual.....

the panggil are those two protruding appendage on the blade closest to the handle, while pangtuli-tuli literally means to uncap, or take one's cap off, in iranun dialect..

There's small iranun sub tribal group called Suppot tribe who were known to be fierce panabas warriors. They chew on medicinal herbs called bayabas before battle to enhance their fighting skills. After each battle, they jump into the ilog (river) as cleansing ritual to wash of the blood from the bagongtuli panabas.

From what have read, this Suppot tribe were once at war with the Kupal or the Maramdamin tribe. Un necessary war this was!
