Hey, Ibeam!

Thanks for the pics of Punong Guro Edgar Sulite. The sword he is holding does look like the one in the picture above. Thanks for the words of encouragement as well.

Maraming Salamat,

Zel

The following blades (the bottom sansibar is a blunt practice blade) were made by Master Romy Macapagal and so are of VERY recent manufacture.

However, since he's the archivist for Kalis Ilustrisimo, he might be worth talking to about historic designs the next time you're near Manila.

Edit: Oh, btw, the live sansibar is chisel-ground.
