A sweeping 18¼-inch blade and sculpted black hilt give this hand-forged Filipino Ginunting a striking profile. Bright metal fittings stand out against the dark finish, while the matching black scabbard follows the curve of the blade.
A fitted metal throat and retention clip add detail at the scabbard opening. At 24¼ inches overall and 1.20 lb without the scabbard, this piece offers a different silhouette from the Barongs and Kris in the selection. The coordinated black finish makes the shaping especially prominent.
Hand-forged using traditional methods in the Philippines, this full-tang Ginunting belongs to the Visayan blade tradition. It offers collectors and Filipino Martial Arts enthusiasts a distinct regional counterpart to the Moro forms from Mindanao.
Handle fit: The grip measures 3 inches, shorter than the grips on the other blades in this selection. Please compare that measurement with your preferred grip length.
