You have very nice piece, made by the look on Luzon, heavy Spanish influenced piece, nice hand guard made for fighting most likely late 1890s work. This was not by the look made in the Visayan Region.

If it were the double Bakunawa hilt, one would still be able to see some artistic facial remnant. I don't see it on this one.
