where to buy itak/machete/etc.

[badkuk]

Does anyone know where to buy one with a scabbard? i'm not looking for master-crafted, commercialized stuff, just something sturdy enough to chop small trees, stainless steel (so no need to oil) and comes with a scabbard. i'm definitely not looking for the Gerber/Bear Gryllz kind of stuff

Ace Hardware has a few, but doesn't come with a scabbard. i think it's quite important to have one to protect the knife, since it will be kept in storage
most of the time.

sir di kaya mga kalawangin to? tamad kasi akong mag oil :D

[holdencaulfield]

dito sa manila seedling. sa loob niyan may naglalako ng mga ganiyan. madalas kong nakikita yung mama, from batangas daw siya.

sa legarda yung sikat na "azucena". parang malapit din ito sa bustillos. ewan ko lang kung bukas pa to. diyan kami bumibili noon ng balisong. gaganda.

Mas maganda sir kung madadaan ka sa batangas.meron lugar dun sa batangas gawaan ng balisong, yung lugar ay balisong, batangas. Bago mag taal yun. Dun ka makakabili ng magagandang itak at machete dun na hindi agad pumupurol.

mahirap hasain ang stainless ubos oras mo mas madalingmaglagay ng oil

[yebo]

Instead of oil you can have it blued. Meron ako hunting knife na batangas inaplayan ko ng gun blue. More than 10 years na hindi kinakalawang.

yung stainless steel na tinda ng mga naglalakad na tindero di maganda. Madali siya pumurol at mahirap hasain.

Kahit ano meron dun... original na balisong pagtinarak sa piso tagos

i've come across at least one site selling filipino bolos bragging about their swords made out of ball bearing/spring -type steel. Totoo pala

and to think largely mano-mano pa yung proceso? That speaks volumes about the work and craftsmanship.

gun blue is the coating on guns. Meron nabibili sa mga gun stores, sabihin mo lang gun blue. Mura lang yun, nasa P200 per tube or bottle. It is actually a kind of salt that when applied on metal produces a very hard oxide coating that will serve as protection for the metal.

saw on tv long time ago ... the swords used on Lord of the Ring movies were made in Sta. Barbara, Pangasinan

lately, next town Calasiao was also featured to have started the same industry in one barangay

Hindi lang pala puto ang okay sa Calasiao, pati itak

purely cosmetic only. it doesn't provide any kind of protection

real "bluing" involves dipping in hot caustic solution

ako nga di ko alam kung pano magkakarun ng genuine katana.
