takong na yari sa balâ

I can't find a single-word Tagalog equivalent of "bamboo wedge". In Bicol, it is "balâ".

This is the closest translation I can give since we use "wedge" also.

I think we do not have a translation for "wedge". If I were to describe a bamboo wedge heel such as: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://i3.iofferphoto... I will simply use "takong na gawa/yari sa kawayan".
