Crazy weird blades. Philippines or Mainland SEA?

That's the one! Thanks, I knew I saw them before. A derivative or variation of the clurit in fact.

Call this parang ginah or parang jengok. Originated from northern Malaysian peninsular typically Kelantan and Terrengganu or Pattani. This is traditionally a sickle where functionally it can be used as a weapon too.

Sold as a Malay sword , not being certain what it was and noticing the decorative handle ...I took the 'risk'
