This one is massive, just a hair over 36 inches in length.

That really is a gem of a find, sir! I don't know much about Panay... I'm guessing it's either a talibong or tenegre, probably late 1800s as it still has a European-style guard. It's a supersized one!

Here is my only talibon. It was captured by American forces. Inscribed on the scabbard is "Captured Tubigan, Bohol, July 1901" in fading ink. I did some restoration to the hilt.

Here is the other Visayan sword I have. It is from the highlands of Panay Island. I restored one missing ear, part of the missing nose, and made the scabbard.
