Hi Carlos,
I'm not sure that this is a Philippine piece either but the blade does kind of reminds me of some Visayan Bolos that I've seen. The grip also reminds me of the horse hoof style that are used on some of them. There is one example in Plates From Krieger's, Combination Piercing and Chopping Bolos item #4 that looks similar to yours.
