Old timers "beggin' your pardon"

[KX1A]

Hey guys, I have a post regarding a post war machete up on the Sword Discussion Forum. It's at http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2916807#post2916807
If you have a chance, please check it out. I figure that some of our old timers might have some ideas about this type of blade.
Thanks for your input Hammy

Bill,

I don't know squat about older blades like this, but the style looks to be from the Philippines (sp?) . . . . Very cool and pristine. That's quite a piece!!!!

Good luck,

Jerry

Yeah, definitely Phillipine style but clearly inscribed St Lucia. Wish I could post bigger pics on the forums. The blade is so big that it loses alot at distance. Maybe some of the old timers will shed some light on it.

I don't know much about the blade, but BWI seems to indicate British West Indies. It says Steamship Registered, do you have any information/trademarks that could indicate which line. I have a professor here who's speciality is steam navigation, if you could email pics of the line's registry marks he may know something.
