FIL: Isang uri ng malaking patalim na karaniwang may dalawang talim at matulis na dulo, ginagamit bilang sandata o kagamitan.
EN: dagger; large knife
Think of it as the bigger, scarier cousin of your kitchen knife. It's the kind of blade you see in historical Filipino movies, used by warriors like Lapu-Lapu. In the province, it might just be a tool for cutting thick grass or coconuts. Definitely not something you want to see during a heated argument in the palengke.
Often associated with historical, martial, or rural contexts. It is a type of 'itak' or 'bolo'.
