The genre looks familiar.

I also found the book. If you like I'll scan the page and send it to you. It is written in Dutch or German, has information about this spear head. Possibly applicable to your sword. Same area N Luzon.

Yes, I had those kind of ritual spears in my head when I bought it.
Any more info or comments?

Wonderful piece and I agree that it reminds me of Bill's Igorot spears. I have never heard of that tribe, but there is a lot I have never heard of........
