Unusual old knife, origin unknown???

6 Attachment(s)

Just added this unusual old knife to my collection. I would certainly appreciate any insight into its origins! I think it has characteristics of knives from northern Luzon but the hilt is an unusual shape. Appears to be missing a ferrule. Old, worn scabbard with a single rattan band remaining. Blade has a rounded tip and certainly shows a lot of wear.

The carvings look Visayan to me, but the blade isn't.

Could also be Formosan.
