I just received this Balisong from a good friend who's husband was an official in a major petroleum corp. It was given to him on a business trip to the Philippines. It was obviously a gift from some prominent person for a special event.

I have several Balisongs but I have never seen anything like this one. It is a solid brass frame with Philippine Mahogany. The file work is exceptional and extensive.

I would appreciate any information that anyone might add regarding the significance of a knife of this quality.

Thanks,
Bob
