I picked up some new items today so I was taking pictures for Instagram, decided I should probably show off a little. I'm not Filipino but my Grandma spent a lot of time in the Phillipines when she was in the Peace Corps and brought most of these back. I also tend to collect a lot of knives in general and have a healthy appreciation for Eastern martial arts so it's only natural I would end up with a lot of these.
From left to right:
A pair of well-loved rattan training sticks I bought for an FMA class a few years back
My new item
Small bolo knife with what I can only assume is a palm wood grip
Masalong Karambit
The new item is my Grandma's machete she brought back from a Peace Corps trip in 1962. I found it today doing some handyman work for her. It still has a decent edge but I need to clean some rust off and moisten the leather scabbard.
The bolo knife is also hers, she fought off a home invader with it in San Francisco sometime in the '60s. Needs work.
The Karambit has been one of my EDCs for about the last year, I usually carry about three knifes including this one. The other two are pocket folders.
