Knife with a blade like that of a kitchen knife, you would probably call it a plamingko though it is a bit different. The back of the blade has engraved crosshatching like many Filipino Moro weapons. The blade and bunti wood handle are separated by a washer made from a queen Victoria penny and a silver ferule.
Dimensions: 21" long overall, 12.25" blade.
