Better photos would greatly help on this but I will give it a try. Both top two look to be Luzon bolos WWII or later. Second down on right looks to be a late pira from Mindanao ?. Third down on right ???. Forth down on right seems like it could be a late minasbad, Bikol. Fifth down on right is a bolo from Negros, WWII or later.

Best,
Robert

Yes, I agree that the guesswork is partly pic-limited.

Whereever this one got crafted, they didn't got it right, especially the hilt. A Yakan of old would probably not be amused...

Repro. Supposed to be a "Moro" laring...

Repro. Supposed to be a Golok from the northern Philippines...


Forth down on the left:
Repro. "Sansibar #2"


Fifth down on the left:
Repro. Out of production? (I believe, we discussed this here before?)


Yup, I cheated and looked at the catalog.

Regards,
Kai
