Ginuntings are the official swords of the Philippine Marines. Filipino warriors chose them because they could cut through anything and everything! The Ginunting is easier to use as a utility tool, as jungle bolos for clearing brush, slaughter tools for hunting, chopping small pieces of wood for fire, making it the best weapon to carry. It is common to see a Ginunting along with M16s used for war in the jungles of the Philippines. This short and versatile weapon designed with a downward curving blade makes it the perfect weapon for close encounters. Our heat treated full tang handmade Dark Filipino Ginunting is extremely durable and virtually indestructible. The blade is crafted from 1095 high carbon steel which has been expertly tempered to a 57 HRc hardness and finished with a darkened blued finish. It is made as robustly as is possible with its blade and tang being made from a single solid piece and is finished with black linen micarta composite grip scales which are solidly riveted directly to the tough blade tang. Included is a leather sheath to complete the sword.
