Well they look to be steel, but they could also be silver. Testing would determine.

The butterfly seems an unlikely symbolism on such a blade. Is there some significance i am unaware of.

Hello Dimasalang,
What a great piece of history !!! I too was watching this but when it was up for auction I had just paid off some med bills and couldn't afford to bid. I am very happy to see someone from the forum was lucky enough to end up with this and especially someone who appreciates its significance. I can't wait to see the new pictures when posted. Do you have it yet or are you still waiting for it to arrive? My congratulations on your new acquisition. Robert |

Don't know if this has anything to do with this blade but any revolutionaries would be sure to have known Rizal's writings/legends. |
