Thank you Jeremy, I will be posting other examples later. If you are interested in Philippine edged weapons please feel free to look through my photos as I have a few listed now and will post more in the future.

Hello Steve, The people of the Philippines did some wonderful carving on water buffalo horn (like the hilt of this piece this) as well as wood when used as hilts and scabbards. This is actually a rather poor example when compared to the work I've seen on other examples.
