Default My clipped-tip Luzon Matulis

This is my very plain Luzon Matulis I thought I would share with everybody. Even though it is very plain it is one of my favorite blades I own. The sheath is engraved with what I believe says W.D. Smith V.I. Cav. (Calvery) I'm assuming it was picked up from the Philippine insurgency. I recently was researching this type of blade and found that some of them have a clipped point like my example. The entire time I thought it was just damaged. I do not know the significance of the clipped point but I find it interesting. For whatever reason I just feel this blade has some history. This is why it quickly became one my favorites in my humble collection.
