The Suburito is a Japanese weighted training sword, used to add resistance to your practice sword swings.  Giho is rare Filipino wood, favored by seamen and fishermen for its oily composition that tends to repel water for longer periods of time.  Just like Kamagong, Giho wood is perfect for carving into decorative training weapons; great for swinging, and for striking & harming opponents, but not meant for wood on wood contact.  

The rarity of finding a giho piece of this length and thickness  makes this Giho Suburito an attractive piece to add to your collection.
