questions about a couple Filipino weapons

mercierarmory · 16th February 2008, 03:03 PM

I assume these are 20th century weapons? Is there any way to date them at all? The vet who acquired these also got 2 katanas from Japan that I am currently planning on buying from the person that gave these to me. I should have them by the end of the weekend.

Anyways, back to the 2 blades in question. From what I read these were primarily tools, but were obviously suitible for weapons. Were there ones that were specifically designed as weapons rather than tools?
