About Bagakay

Bagakay

The bagakay is an ancient Filipino weapon made of bamboo or wood. It is a dart-type of weapon sharpened at both ends and about six to ten inches in length thrown at an enemy at close quarters and were generally thrown five at a time increasing the possibility of hitting the target. It can be made from small tree branches cut in the proper length and sharpened at both ends or made from hollow bamboo filled with clay for additional weight and easy throwing. It is named after Schizostachyum lima, a species of bamboo locally known as bagakay.
