The more ornate sword is in really nice condition and has the date of the battle when it was captured on the sheath. The bottom sword is very nice but not as ornate and there is a little corrosion on the blade and some of the wraps on the sheath are missing. $125 for the top sword. $50 for the bottom sword, or both for $150 Last edited by Bill_N; 05/23/19.

An old friend of mine, who has now been "promoted to Glory", brought home a Filipino-made sword that was used by a local guerrilla fighter to "take out" a Japanese COL in 1944. = His granddaughter has it displayed on her bedroom wall. (TSG Paul N. B__________ "took to the brush" & fought the Japanese as a guerrilla with USFIP from the fall of Fortress Corregidor until the Philippines were liberated.) yours, tex "VICTORY OR DEATH" William Barrett Travis, Lt.Col., comdt.

Dagger was a gift to him in 1944 made by a Filipino native from artillery brass casing, jeep spring steel blade and hand grip from water buffalo horn. Image Gallery - WWII Filipino Dagger for closer look.
