Schmied macht Bolo Macheten

Filippino Blacksmith cutting down some flat springs to make machete´s out of it.

I had a bolo made by a blacksmith in Mambajao, Camiguin Island, Philippines. The shop is a beehive of activity, and the workers are busy continuously.

Blacksmiths of the Philippines making bolo machetes with old recycled leaf springs. Put simply, bolo is the Filipino word for machete. From the far northern city .
