sorry for the late reply bushido_man96..I've gotten hold of a sanzibar last december 2007. I will post a picture a soon as i can. Its basically a straighter version of the bolo. It is forged only in one town in the province of leyte, eastern visayas region of the philippines. I went there for my thesis research (world war II), so I passed the town.
