My apologies for necro-ing this thread. Sir Rick, may I have your source on this? I am greatly interested, thanks.

As long as you dredged up this thread

Here is a web site selling new Filipino traditional weapons. I make no claim regarding authenticity, but it could be a useful site to identify some names and shapes of unfamiliar or rarely seen weapons such as the laring (on Ariel’s list).

Hello Dave,

You may want to reconsider - in the light of the forum rules as well as this recent posting:

Hello Mike,

I do understand your sentiments. However, I don't think we want this thread become dealers' links galore...

Regards,
Kai

Thanks Kai. Folks we can’t post links to commercial websites as per forum rules.

Hi, if you'll note post #6 in this thread you will see the examples.

About all I can comment is that some Seller had either broken up the examples on a Moro weapons board, or bought a bunch of examples loose and auctioned them off in groups.
This was some years back; I put them in a shadow box on red cloth.
