Thank you Kronckew. I usually look for something different, but the inlay caught my eye though.

Here are a couple of pictures of the Philippines giant centipede and the silver inlay on the blade of my gunong for comparison. I am now more convinced that the inlay is of a stylized Maranao okir centipede.
