Looks like a two handed 56" Khyber, one hand to hold the what appears to be a normal size grip, and someone else's hand to hold it closer to the tip

. The assistant would also help draw it from it'sscabbard.

Maybe the owner just didn't want an opponent to get close enough to require a regular sized one. Must have had pretty strong wrists too. As would the guy with the little bowie.
