Bangkung
The bangkung is a short sword originating in the Sulu Archipelago of the Philippines. The bangkung was used primarily by the Moro people of the Sulu and is not associated with Moros in other areas such as Mindanao, although it is sometimes found in coastal regions. The bangkung is a slashing weapon, meant to deliver hacking type blows.〔Cato, Robert. Moro Swords. Graham Brash: Singapore, 1996.〕 While the bangkung is a very effective sword, it was not popular and for this reason it is one of the most rarely found Moro edged weapons. Few were produced and even fewer survive. ==Appearance==
The unusual shape of the bangkung blade makes it easily identifiable. The overall size of bangkung varies, ranging from 50 to 75 centimeters, although a few shorter and longer specimens have been proposed as examples.
