Gayang is a common traditional Filipino ethnic Moro weapon in Sulu archipelago.[1] It is a double-edged sword about 24–48 in (61–122 cm) in length with a typical hook hilt grip to prevent slipping.[2] The sword was believed to be from Borneo and was a Philippines' version of Mandau, a traditional sword of the Dayaks of Borneo.[3]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
