Just Ended On Ebay

"Yeah, it does look a little Luzon and Katipunaro or first Filipino republic doesn't it?

Note the 3 stars in a row on each section. Probably belonged to a high ranking officer."

My thoughts exactly Jose. I even put a couple of items in hock to my brother to hopefully be able to score this for my collection. But as it went for a few hundred more than I thought it would someone else ended up with it.

I just hope they know what it is and didn't go by the auction description. Here are a few of the auction pictures for later reference in case it was not someone from the forum that won it.

LOL,

Thing is, it brings to mind a few things. Obviously some have been covered, but also: 17th/18thC, Italian, naval Dirk...... well to me anyway.
In fact it even looks quite like the repro naval dirk from Cold Steel.
Hmmm, I'm not really helping am I?
