Agree with Detlef that you have a great piece there...always so nice to find these complete with scabbard. I do not think it is a shandigan, though, based on what I can see. Is the wooden pommel complete, or does there appear to be any breakage?
At first glance the scabbard looks Yakan(possibly Borneo), but the barong does not have a horn ferrule more typical of Yakan types.
Good get!!
