Question On Odd Barong

If it may help; I do find the octagonal handle with those rings at an interval quite similar style as I have seen on the long curved-bladed beheading swords. Hope you know what I mean (or perhaps someone else).
Am not sure myself (100%) of where those beheadingswords where used, but I believe Maranao (tribe), Mindanao isld.?? (my expertise lies more to N.-Phil.)
Congrats though; very nice one; always nice to have a piece of silver deco.
