  • Thank you...

  • Oh too bad, I thought the uploader of this video was a Filipino sorry... Just translate it what I've said here....

  • @moz165 It does not matter where it comes from. Be happy that the people of the world are into your culture and history, not to mention the martial arts. Being predudice in todays world is not good for anyone. The world is small now and people have friends everywhere. thats the way its supposed to be.

  • hahahaha ginawang American style ang mga sandata ng Pinoy hahah!

  • @moz165 Goes to show how you don't even know about your own culture. They are all made by Filipinos in the Philippines. So you made yourself sound like an idiot just now with your reply here.

  • @RonOrGina kelan ba naging ibang klase ang handle ng sandata dito? Paki tingin po maigi ang images mo bago maghusga... alam ko naman ang kultura ng Pinoy walang ganyan ka taas ng standard na hawakan ni panahon pa ni Rizal? Pakitignan ang pinagsasabi ha ganyan ka ba makipagusap? Kung gusto mo naman bastusan ewan ko nalang sa iyo...

  • @moz165 blades all have been very well researched by people there in the Philippines that have them laying around, from museums and by very good anthropologists. They are all historically accurate in exact measurements. And engineered to perfection.

  • @RonOrGina Ok I understand what you've explained, I type here in English not Tagalog because you weren't replied here in Tagalog which means you aren't a Filipino... The standards of these weapons were made of steel and wood only, I've just wondered why those handles they were looked like made of plastic instead of wood... Sorry for my being hot-headed here minutes ago because the way you replied me in the first place... You can't say those Filipino Archaeologists are so accurate the way you

  • you think, because some of the Filipinos are liars but only few are right... That's why you shouldn't trust Filipinos so easily unless they proved it right...

  • @moz165 The people I know, I trust. I have known them for many years. Plus, like I said I had a historian now working with me. They are all historically accurate. Not to mention they are in many museums here and in the Philippines and we went on exact specs. They are all made of various hard woods and carabao horn. shhhh on the carabao horn. ;) My Tagalog is ok. I can see words and recognize them. In speaking it, I am weak there. I was able to translate your replys though.

  • @RonOrGina Oh I see, that's good to hear that. But I haven't learned our culture and the traditional weapons so well. That's why I didn't know what are the other kinds of Filipino weapons that the Filipinos used.. except for Arnis, Itak, Bolo and Kampilan... Some say that the style of Filipino warrior's fighting are so unique and could match any other warriors outside of the Philippines..

  • @moz165 Me and my friends there are working hard to bring back the weapons thought to be extinct. And we are doing it. Its work and a lot of research. There is history there that should not just go away. The martial arts are the best also. I am preserving that here as well. Take a look at PSDTC(dot)com

  • I got a pinute the thin and the broad one cut my finger once while puting its sheath back on really sharp with bits of rust and oil...

  • The only Filipino weapon i have is my wonderful balisong or butterfly knife. Thanks for the video RonOrGina! Thumbs up if you are pinoy!

  • @damienmalchus I am coming out with a Balisong cut video soon. This will prove the TFW Balisongs are the best. :)

  • @RonOrGina Thank you for featuring our native blades! have you been to the Philippines? If not try looking for a contact in the province of Batangas where they make the finest balisong. :) thanks again sir!

  • let AK talk to 'em :)

  • @tkm679 Thank you. The feel of these weapons is really nice. You can feel the perfect engineering on it.

  • Sundang neh

  • makes me proud of being a filipino

  • @Trybut3 Why does seeing the weapons of your people make you proud? That they could use farming implements to defend themselves? Sorry.. just don't see your point.

  • @TheMrJadefyre If I may interject here...if you look back through history, yours and every other culture, weapons doubled as tools sinse the beginning of man-kind. Hence our urg to look at videos and pictures of swords and knives; at this point in time, they are part of our DNA as survival tools in general. These are all works of art from the Philippines. The Filipinos are very good artists. I have seen many survive on what they create in the Philippines. Not many can make that same claim.

  • these are all tiny little knives compared to the hunting knives ive seen

  • @killkarma361 Obviously you have not seen these as close as you have seen your hunting knives. Hunters all over the world are buying these now. Also campers, fishermen and landscapers as well. Not to mention collectors. ;)

  • Am I the only one who thought of the star wars kid at the beginning of the video?

  • @JonO387 So far you are. ;)

  • 00:50 How much does the walking stick?

  • @TheNanohirn $225...its the best you will find. Look on the web site. All prices are on there. The web site is on the video at the end.

  • oh man. thx. now i'm jealous

  • @FranzG1996 No need to be jealous, go to the web site announced in this video and order the ones you want to collect. I always deliver them within 2 days after you order. :)

  • ah i remember when my grand father used to make me some awesome blades/sword just like in this video for me to use for gardening.

  • @bursky09 Yes, times sure have changed. heheheh Though they always doubled as tools as well as weapons. Most of them anyway.

  • whatever bullshit

  • @Nero7302 Thats ok because you are the only one who feels that way. I sell these to big time collectors all over the world every day.

  • ano po background music nito marame raw nagtatanong eh?....

  • does anyone have a review about the batangas kampilan

  • @Nero7302 Send me a picture of it. I have never seen one. They are usually seen from Leyte down.

  • @Nero7302 .....i don't think batanga or any other non muslim community pre hispanic times, had any weapons like the kris, kampilan or panabas. Unlike the non muslims, the filipino muslims had weapons that were more for killing then for agriculture. Bolos and bamboo spears were produced by the non muslim communities because they don't come from a strong blade war or war culture.

  • I really like the walking stick with sword in it.

  • @Michel0555 Its a nice traditional made weapon. Its not like the flimsey ones you see sold all over. Its real stable and firm. Nice when you have a hurt knee also. ;)

  • wwwwwwwooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!1 proud to be filipino

  • @aqcbiko And you should be.

  • @RonOrGina teka pilipino ka ba?

  • TU! absolutely beautiful! one day I'll get to own one :)

  • @wmpyr Throw hints out there for the holidays. :)

  • saan po eto ginawa? where is your store located?

  • @beramz83 It is in Waterbury, CT, USA. If you can come by feel free to. Or you can order right off line with the PayPal set up. Let me know. Either way, I will get it right out to you.

  • is machete a filipino weapon did it originated there?

  • @l4ddude100 Machete is actually a Spanish word. Its merely a tool. All cultures have blades that can double as a tool and a battle weapon.

  • @l4ddude100 The term machete has been used for many centuries in Spanish for a large blade that could double as a tool and a weapon. However, if you look at older machetes they're more like short sabers or even straight swords (fascine knives). I'm pretty sure the development towards the modern machete design was influenced by oriental blades like the bolo, golok, pinuti etc.

  • @l4ddude100 Africans have been using "machete"-style blades for thousands of years.

  • I read somewhere that the yoyo is a Filipino jungle weapon.. My friend's "Badi" before could cut deformed steel bars but don't damage the blade..

  • @HugeAntenna88 Yes, that is definately a sword that can easily cut a body in two. Even the commoners Kampilan known as the Kampilan bolo is one deadly beautiful weapon.

  • Because Explorer Ferdinand Magellan Simple Underestimate the

    Filipino Martial Art

    "KALI" ,"Eskrima" or "Arnis"

    He died in the Battle of Mactan

  • @ARTBUS1 He did not underestimate the FMA, he was out numbered and not prepared for the environment being in full armour. There is no historical proof that they had an actual battle, weapon to weapon but there is proof that they did get rained on with spears and arrows, then slaughtered once they were injured.

  • @RonOrGina well without our spears arrows, and sticks and stones and whatever shit we had, we'd be speaking in spanish just like the other latin american countries that got raped by the spanish in the name of god.

  • @mac2flip THAT, I can agree with yuo 100%

  • @mac2flip why, actually don't you speak spanish? I've seen that traditional phlipino weapons website has many names of sword in spanish

  • @fenotipobombay yes there are spanish influences but still we are not pure spanish right?

  • @mac2flip we don't speak spanish but we still got raped and subjugated, in the name of god of course

  • @TheJevardo hahaha yes true that. they took away our writing too - alibata and baybayin, but when they raped us at least they let us keep our language lol

  • @RonOrGina the strange thing about that is after being stabbed and slashed so many time majellan was still alive and even weirder is that the moro's didn't go for the head in an instant, and it's proven that what his name again log is not very reliable because of over exaggeration of the event, but thing about unpreparedness might be true

  • vulnerable to long range attack, and it is also a dis advantage in sword to sword combat when your opponent have lower water resistance than you, considering that Magellan wares armor . The physic of native's at that time are well well adapt making them more speedy.

  • Respond to this video...  I agree to that Sir, I watched movies, read books and asked the elder's of our tribe regarding that epic battle, they tell different stories. But one thing i Notice about it they exaggerate everything. Ferdinand Magellan must not be dumb after all but the environment cannot favor his attack. Water slows you down if you are going towards the shore, making...

  • meron akong bolok dito sa bahay di namin pinapansin

  • @Hhunterr18 Can you send me a picture of it? I would love to see what it looks like. Thank you.

  • great stuff guru ron,from ralph parris

  • @1951ism Thank you Ralph. I am glad you like these weapons. :)

  • Where can i get a garab knife in the philippines?

  • @nil1230 I am not sure where you can get one in the Philippines. Its not easy finding one that is not tourist quality there. You can order it off my web site.

  • @nil1230 you can buy it in any stores. or ask some farmers, because garab is like a farming tool (cutting rice)

    -Im a Filipino

  • I started checking out your web site mainly because of the new Chinese dao, I had no idea there was such a rich heritage of Filipino bladed weapons. I plan to buy a few, as the budget allows.

  • @Pyrotude I am glad you like what you see here. I always deliver within 2 days after you order so feel free to when you are ready to. Thank you!

  • None of the swords are full tang?

  • @v8einstein Yes, they are all full tang and none of the handles will break. Look up Traditional Filipino Weapons test cutting on youtube and you will see how solid these blades all are.

  • Blacksmiths in the Philippine are called "Panday" ....

    Hope ya got short trivia ... !

  • @bellezaregie27 Yes, of course I knew that already.

  • @ahmed123162 There is No Malayan race, A lot of people are saying that they came from Malay race, Long time ago Malaysia was an Indonesian province, they even speak Indonesian up to now, Indon race is the right term. and can anybody tell me where i can buy this Blades in he Philippines? I think this is all made in the USA in CT.

  • @flyboy77730001 Malay, if I am not mistaken means "from many people." As a race, I agree with you...I don;t think you can classify it as a particular race of people. As for the swords, they are made in the Philippines but the store is on the TFW web site.

  • when i see this video & hear the music Grabe!! parang binalik ang tunay kong dugong lahing filipino a true and ancient culture that truly is a filipino malayan race -sadly nowadays is beginning to fade because of westernization of our culture. that's why i was practicing Eskrima to be truly in sync of our true culture...& our true identity...

  • @ahmed123162 I agree with you and you should be preserving the true essance of your culture. I am not Filipino but I am drawn to the culture, the history and the fighting systems. I see so many now just banging each other with sticks and they are proud that they are part of it even though it has missing pieces. Money making activities can kill the historical accuracy quick. I have seen that happen in so many different styles from various cultures over the years.

  • Nice music.

  • @RonOrGina you know you should really check out our website @ MFMAA.com tell me what you think about our style it would really help us out to have another fma artists opinion

  • @BLADExARTx5160 I will check it out when I have the chance to. Thank you!

  • @RonOrGina cool, hey regarding your blended steel you use for your blades how's the durability you know how well does it hold an edge stuff like that?

  • @BLADExARTx5160 Very well! Hunters, people who go fishing and landscapers are also buying these due to the high quality. They cannot find a good machete anywhere so they are buying mine. So its not just FMA'ers and sword collectors getting these.

  • @RonOrGina cool, thanks I subscribed to your channel btw :), hey since your all the way in Connecticut how long would it take to ship to Hawaii?

  • @BLADExARTx5160 I always ship by the next day after you order. Its takes approximately 3-5 days to get there. Many times it is 3 days. So you will get it quickly.

  • @RonOrGina whats the length and weight on the sanduko?

  • @BLADExARTx5160 All the information is on the web site. Click on each one and more pictures, history and length and width are on each weapon for you. Here is the Sanduko info - Daga Blade Length:7.19" - Sword Blade Length: 19.50"

    Overall Daga Length: 12.25" - Sword Overall Length: 26.25"

    Believe me, you will like this set. Even the knife is a perfect all around everything weapon.

  • @RonOrGina I just need something fast and maneuverable with both a good slashing stabing capability, the Moro blades look good what's your opinion?

  • @BLADExARTx5160 Many have that attribute. the Pinute also. The one I like for good slash and thrust skills is the Sanduko Y Daga. Thats probably my favorite one.

  • @RonOrGina Of Maui and I was wondering if I could get some advice from an expert such as yourself on such a specific subject were are called MFMAA or Maui Filipino martial arts academy our style is a mixture of Doce pares and pedoy derobio eskrima and I was wondering what type of blade I should get for the derobio side of our style because my master said I would need one maybe you could help me out ok thank you

  • @BLADExARTx5160 I am not sure of the blended style. Doce Pares seems to be in the Leyte and Cebu area predominantly. That area you will see more of the Sansibars, which are popular with the Doce Pares group. You can go to TraditionalFilipinoWeapons(dot­)com to see a very large Sansibar collection. Feel free to order. I always ship them out by the next day after you order.

  • @RonOrGina Hello Mr.kosakowski my name is tristen and I do FMA here in Hawaii on the island

  • @RonOrgina yeah, just looking at the designs of these blades and hearing this music got me interested into filipino culture.

  • @x5killah It is an interesting culture. Still holding on to the old ways in many areas of the Philippines.

  • So Filipino people were slashers not stabbers? Interesting.,.

  • @x5killah Slashing and thrusting is a known Filipino fighting method with edged weapons. Impact weapons is more hacking however, you will see thrusting there to specific targets. There is a lot of history behind these blades. Their fighting methods were feared going back in time. You would like it.

  • are these made in the philippines?

  • @dalesuhr Yes, everything is made in the Philippines. A lot of work went into getting these historically accurate. Many were hard to find but we are finding them. Check out the web site, there are many picutres and explainations all about everything there. The web site address is at the end of the video.

  • filipino martial arts are being used and teached by freigners. while in our country no one ven knows arnis :( sad reality

  • @zaitovssilencer Its there my frind. You have to look around. I have trained all over the Philippines and met many FMA'ers there.

  • @RonOrGina just some... what im trying to say is, unlike muay thai it is very famous in thailand? get my poiint? it doesnt look like our national sport qand martial art. TAekwondo and boxing is more known in the philippines

  • @zaitovssilencer Thailand is not a melting pot either so you will not see multicultural ways of life there like you will in the Phils. There are many good FMA'ers left in the Philippines though. You see them training in the parks a lot. I have seen some schools as well. It is not as big as Muay Thai in Thailand but it is still all over the place.

  • @zaitovssilencer well, i see your point. But it is not that popular u know. i mean less practitioners of arnis right now. They are moe on boxing or even taekwondo. i know it because i was born here and has explored our martial art

  • what is this music? i dont recognize it as tagalog... is it visaya or ilocano maybe?

  • @marlo916 Most of it is traditional southern Philippine music. I wanted to get this band from Manila to sell their music on my web site but they were not motivated to do it. Its most unfortunate because music like this is quite appealing to people in FMA's.

  • FILIPINO POWER!!!!!!!!

  • nice sword, very nice sword, do you have branches her in the manila, i want to buy one. thanks 

  • @paolothemaster No, but you can order and I will have it shipped to you if you would like.

  • i want to see an ancient yoyo weapon!

  • @Heujjinhyu The yoyo was not really a weapon. It was more for hunting animals off a tree.

  • @RonOrGina you should add spears since they are more effective then swords

  • @copypacercopypacer I wouldn't say more effective due to the fact that it depends more the skill of the person using it. If you look on the web site, I have a spear there. Its a real nice one also.

  • the sword.some call it 'BOLO.

    *here they use it to cut through animal meat.bones, hard item. others are already rusty.so my Lola use it for Gardening purposes :Dhehe and.I have one too.I use it for cooking.just like a chef knife :D

  • @MAFIAger Do you have one that is like any of the pictures in the video? If not, can you send me a picture of it? When I was in the Philipppines, I found it amazing in how many uses of a favorite sword or knife was used for so many different tasks. Thats a real blade culture.

  • go Philipines

  • wow si tuviese que elegir me quedaria con todos; muy exelente todo, quede encantado con el ceremonial knife # 2 mil felicitaciones................­.........

  • @FERCHOYSAM I agree with you there. For knife fighting, Ceremonial 2 is hard to beat. Its good for slash and thrust and the handle can be used for in close circumstances. Its my favorite knife. Though the Hagibis is a close second.

  • are any of these actually sharp?

  • @dohboiii They are all razor sharp! And very well engineered. You will like them believe me! :)

  • im a filipino and i hate it when foreigners use it with weird stances

  • @bimbox15 Can you eplain better what you mean?

  • @bimbox15  i agree big time

  • @bimbox15 im from europe and i think you are totally wright. it looks so retarded when western people do it

  • wow my miother is from the philipines and i never even knew thay had swords in their ancient times or whenever

  • "I AM PROUD TO BE A PILIPINO"

  • i want a lahot how much is it and the shipping

  • @spmexican214 Click on each blade on the web site and the PayPal set-up will figure it out automatically for you for wherever you live. I look forward to adding to your collection.

  • they should feature traditional weapons from all over the world in the History channel. .not just the japanese samurai`s. roman swords..i never knew these swords existed in the phils. .i hope the world doesnt forget our culture. .

    and 1 question..why are Samurai`s straight and ginunting/bolo`s curved..spiral. .

  • @nil1230 Thats why I am bringing back all the ancient weapons that were thought to be extinct. You are definately right, there should be more about these blades on TV. People would find them very interesting due to the vasdt history behind them. We can't let the history die out to modern time activities..

  • @RonOrGina what is the most common and strong filipino sword, in the philipines thats not the kris

  • @copypacercopypacer The Kris and the Kampilan seem to represent the Philippines outside the Philippines. The most common one I see there in the jungles and with workers is the Pinute. The Garab knife is the knife I see many workers using.

  • @RonOrGina whats a very strong filipino machete that isn't the panabas or the kris???? like say, it can go through the cotton armour of a aztec eagle warrior and could cut a person in half??? because if their is none thats not the panabas or kris then i rather stick with the katana, because i'm seeing who would in a fight between a aztec eagle or a filipino warrior since, the filipino warior might lose since the machetes aren't that good/

  • @copypacercopypacer The Pinute, the Golok, the war golok, the Espada Y Daga, the Itak Tagolog #1 or 2, The Sanduko...the list goes on. Look through the TFW web site. Believe me, most of those blades will cut a body in two like it is butter. Look at the Ginunting cut video. It cut through thick bone like butter.

  • @RonOrGina question: can the bolo kampilan go through hard bone or maybe a aztec jaguars cotton armour????? can the bolo kampilan at least go through take a kill a person in one blow anywhere???

  • can the bolo kampilan go through leather armour or maybe cotton armour.....? also since i'm really into filipino swords like the bolo kampilan, i would like to know if it can kill in one hit.....like the katana

  • @copypacercopypacer of course it can kill in 1 hit.... just imagine one of this sword are inside of your body... O_o o_O

  • @RonOrGina LAST QUESTION.......do filipio have any range weapons like a bow and arrow or something????? because i'm very intrested in my past heritage along with my japanese self too

  • @copypacercopypacer Yes, it is called the Pana. There is a blow gun also. They doubled as hunting weapons as well.

  • @RonOrGina thank you, very much for the information....the reason why i ask is because i'm trying to buy the swords and the sphere from the traditional filipino swords website...and the reason is because there is a show called deadliest warrior and my freind is trying to feature the filipino datu in it...........however my concern is the cutting power of the kampilan bolo, is it strong enough to cut through leather????? or maybe atleast cut a person in half?

  • sexy

  • is there a school in the US that teaches some of the techniques?

  • @Kelvarra Yes, go to PSDTC(dot)com There is a lot of FMA information and videos there to see.

  • hey where is your delivery origin? i mean are they delivered from the philippines of the US?

  • @bowow0807 They are made in the Philippines. The store front is in the US.

  • Can you have your swords customized so that the blades are "blackened"? I saw really old Moro Kriss and their blades were dark and not shiny.

  • @simion11 If you saw them blackened, it was a custom job. There was no technology that allowed blackening in ancient times. As for me doing it, I just recommend you have it done after you purchase them. I sell them all the traditional way for collectors.

  • @RonOrGina WHERE ARE THE SPERES AND BOW AND ARROW?

  • @copypacercopypacer Look on the website and you will see many different types of Filipino weapons. And there is a lot more coming soon.

  • @RonOrGina i looked i only saw one spere.........the reasons why is because i want to see who would win in a fight. aztec eagle warrior or the filipino native warrior

  • @copypacercopypacer My money goes on the Filipino warrior. The Azteks did not have an organized progression in their culture. The people of the Philippines did. Azteks based their fighting on some common logic for counter offense but it was mostly based on bravery and strength. That also goes for the native peoples fighting methods in all of north and sounth America.

  • @simion11 there was plenty of ways to blacken a blade in ancient times... holding the blade over a candle (the assasin tribe did this) so it gets a layer of carbonmonoxide. putting oil on the blade when its around 3-400 degrees (C) this will fuck up the hardening of the blade, but it gets black. hardening in oil giver a grey /black layer that is rather durable....but if you buy one of these blades it would be a damn shame to do anything like that

  • I have all of those (especially the Gulok)

  • are these weapons made for real combat? not theatrical but for long hours of abuse and fighting stress not display items or anything?

  • @bowow0807 These are all combat ready made of the highest grade steels. 5160 and a D2 blend with other treatments to make them hard yet light to take abuse. Look through the Traditional Filipino Weapons videos on youtube. There are many different cut testing I have done and many customers have done over the years. Some are crazy cutting tests with no damage done to the blades. You will be amazed!

  • @bowow0807 these have been used in fighting the spaniard's back then thereare some who still use it in farming

  • @soyvin101 dude i am filipino

  • @bowow0807 then you should study more history,iam actually good at history

  • yay fillipinos!!!!!!

  • wow nice weapons.. ^_^ ...... if im not mistaken the majority of these weapons are from visayas and mindanao.... COOL... MABUHAY!!!!!!! ^_^

  • its cheaper and high quality in cotabato, sulu, and zamboangga
