Both me and the seller think it is borneo, but without an original handle or scabbard it makes me wonder what it looked like before.

Anyone who has a similar blade or picture of such a blade ?

Length of the blade is 47 cms without the handle.
The protruding piece at the base is 3 cms
It looks to me like a modified blade of a sikin pasangan.
probably reshaped into Batak blade ?
It looks like a mix between sikin and kalasan.
