Default An Indian sword from the 17th century

In Ethnographic Objects in The Royal Danish Kunstkammer 1650-1800, the sword below is shown on p. 108 as EDb106.
The interesting thing is, that the blade is marked with the Danish Norwegan king Christian V's (r. 1670-1699) coat of arms.
The sword is first seen in the inventory lists from 1739.
