Newbie with Some knives

[Morty87]

Hello everyone. I buy storage lockers as a hobby and recently came across a bit of a knife collection. I have no idea on these ones though and am hopeful you may be able to help me out with identifying them. The 2 biggest knives the owner put his name on them so I assume they were more than just show pieces.

I edited. Sorry about that.

They appear to be tourist versions of typical Indonesian/Malay/Phillippine bolo work knives. The blade steels are quite plain and unpolished while the grips & sheaths are overly decorated so they were meant to be "wall hangers" and not "using" knives. They are not the same as machetes as these work blades are meant to cut hardwoods while a machete is meant to process green plants. We can't discuss values but you wouldn't get much for these.
