Interesting small PI knife

Another small I picked up recently.
Fits very well in the hand.
Comments? It has some conflicting attributes.

Interesting knife. Blade profile look like from a Talibon so I think that this knife is from the Visayas but others will be able to tell you more. What material is the binding at the grip?

Regards,

Detlef

Yes, the blade is a chisel grind similar to a talibon but much smaller on the line of a pisaw.

The material on the grip appears to be modern gaffers tape of some sort.

What is interesting to me is the handle seems to be more southern in style.
