The only sword that ever existed in the Philippines that does not have a pointy tip. The War Golok is most simple tool that has ever been used by the Igorot tribes of the north.  The tribes consider this as their “multi-tool,” for it can be used to chop wood for fire, carve wood and create decorations, for butchering meat, peeling and slicing fruits, and many more uses.  The tribal wars that existed between tribes found another use for the War Golok so it evolved to become their personal weapon.
