Dahong palay

The Dahong Palay (also spelled Dahon palay or Dahompalay), literally "rice leaf" in Tagalog, is a single-edged sword from the Philippines, specifically the Southern Tagalog provinces of Batangas and Mindoro. The sword's name could either be a reference to the similarity of its shape to the leaves of rice or to local green snakes "''dahong palay''", purported to be extremely venomous.〔(Dahong Palay by Arturo B. Rotor )〕 The snake is probably green specimens of the Philippine Pit Viper, ''Trimeresurus flavomaculatus'', though it is sometimes identified as various relatively harmless green snakes, like vine snakes. The ''dahong palay'' was originally used as a farmer's tool, for clearing thick grass growths. However, during the Philippine revolution of 1896, farmers from Batangas soon came to favor it for its slashing and thrusting "feel".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.traditionalfilipinoweapons.com/DahonPalay.html )
== Physical description ==
The ''dahong palays size is about the same as most Filipino swords such as the kalis, golok, or ''ginunting'', measuring about twenty to thirty inches.
