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.

Great high-end pieces and nice restorations, Jose! (I especially like the limited restoration of the garab hilt.)
Just a reminder so that we're not getting sidetracked: Ray asked for Visayan pieces other than garab/talibon, tenegre, and talibong.  Regards, Kai |

Another recent samples. A sansibar tinamban with an albino carabao horn hilt and a sansibar binatanggas with wooden hilt, both from Leyte province.
Not sure how many types of sansibar profiles are out there, but there's another one called "oyon", which is straight unlike the binatanggas and tinamban profiles. |
