i have an old 10 inch blade "rambo" knife that i bought a long time ago at tagaytay picnic grove. bearing materiàl daw but never did try cutting a peso coin with it. it holds its edge. i have cut a fallen tree trunk with it pero medyo mahirap at masyado makapal ang blade and also not long enough.
i also had the p600 stainless itak/bolo sold in batangas. would have been good but it does not hold its edge well and needs frequent sharpening. lost it, hindi na sinoli sa akin ng naglinis ng house namin.
bought itak from pangasinan, nueva ecija and ilocos sur. all were suppose to be forged leaf springs. all them stores are liars. not forged at all, just plain leaf spring that were ground to shape, bend like tin cans, chipped easy and the half tangs broke on 2 of them. the ilocos one is still with me but i will get rid of it when i get a proper "itak tagalog" or "dahong palay".
i have a 4" folding in the car for emergencies, suppose to be original germany with car wind shield breaker and seat belt cutter. forgot the brand name. bought it for 3k.
meron seller before sa olx sa calookan sila. medyo pricey kasi they advertised an itak tagalog upwards of 8k. old school hot forging and quenching daw using 4140 steel. di ko na sila nakikita pa sa olx. i was interested kasi i heard from my uncles before if they needed a bolo or any farm tool made they went to this family in calookan. i was thinking baka descendants sila.
