Geoff:

Strong Spanish influence as noted by others.

The knife shown in the reference you cite is more likely Ilocano (judging from the brass guard). However, the guard on your knife is different and not really Ilocano in style. I would not rule out a Mexican origin for your knife--the blade shape is commonly found on Mexican knives (see, for example, here).
