I would say yes it is from Borneo, especially based on the larger and thicker scabbard common to that region. There are Moros on Borneo on the province of Sabah.

Not too long ago, the Philippine Moros made a claim that Sabah belonged to them (actually they always claimed this in the name of the Sultanate of Sulu).

I wish I had the funds for this unusual version.............
