Default "regular" VOC sword or ethnograpical object?

Was a little suprised when I got this sword this week.
According to the seller it came probably from Indonesia.
The blade seems to have old VOC marks.only the last numbers are a little visable and it seems like 77.
The top of the handle is decorated with a kind of beaver-marmoth or anything like that? looks also a little Tlingit....
The scabbard is from zinc.
Hope anyone can help me with this.....
