Simple but old Minasbad

Thank you Robert (hope you feel well again) and Michael for posting examples with similar hilts. So this bolo is from the Visayas but now I would be interested from which island. When I read again the explanation from Bangkaya in the thread about Roberts bolo I think we can exclude the Waray origin like by Roberts bolo. But the first (very nice BTW) one Michael has shown look very similar from the handle and the blade, Michael, do you know from where is this one?

Best regards,

Detlef
