Philippine Bolo Bring Back

[usabaker]

Here is an interesting one that I forgot to share with the forum when my daughter gave it to me.
My daughter who is a Staff Sgt. in the US Army was sent to the Philippines to Fort Magsaysay where was worked with the Philippine Special Forces during a joint forces training exercise. One of the SF guys that my daughter befriended gave her this Bolo to give to me (there is a story about this), he makes these as a hobby. I have a number of these that I brought back for the Philippine but none as nice as this. I’ve never seen one where the handle is formed out of the tang.
