Unusual Kampilan

Have to agree with Jose. I think it is also Lumad, but definitly not tourist. I also don't think it is strictly ceremonial. It looks like a combat kampilon to me. No matter what, it is a really good example of a rare style of kamp................Dave.

A UNUSUAL KAMPILLIAN INDEED. I CAN'T REALLY TELL MUCH FROM THE PICTURES, PERHAPS A FEW OF THE SCABBARD WOULD HELP. FROM WHAT LITTLE I CAN SEE IN THE PRESENT PICTURES THE SCABBARD MAY BE LUMAD OR PERHAPS BAGOBO OR TIBOLI A GOOD CLOSEUP OF THE DETAIL WOULD HELP.

a close up on the hand guard and tip of blade would help.

A close up of the tiger bells may help. http://park.org/Guests/Tiger/details.htm http://park.org/Guests/Tiger/phils.htm#mindanao http://park.org/Guests/Tiger/indonesi.htm#lanun

I'd figure that the kampilan was mostly made by the moros while the ones seen in the Visayas and luzon regions were imported from Mindanao, no?
