Spunjer,
We saw the same swords in Negros this year, and guess what.....they had different names than those in the article......arrrggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I bought the one they called Binangon in Negros...the article calls it Binakuko....

Damn dialects!!!!
So, we're back to calling it a Bolo or Sundang.
