Dha with this style of blade are not uncommon. usually they are associated with the Kachin Look at sword 231 and 232 here

Several others can be found on Marks index here

I have never seen one with an oval hilt but maybe others have or maybe it was originally round and was "flattened" a bit by something that happened to it
