Good evening,
The blade looks concave / convex on the first 2 pictures, which makes it a mandau blade. Th egenaral shape is not atypical
The decoration that is visible on the last pictures looks indeed a bit atypical.
Better picture in due time will be nice.
Nice carved handle. the bronze sleeve is atypical, and probably even a later addition. Maybe a sleeve from a spear/lance that was modified ?
handles with silver sleeves are sometimes seen.
tastefull weapon nevertheless.
Best regards,
Willem
