Spear with kris blade

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a tombak. The auction identified it as a "dance spear" (for what that's worth). While the wooden components seem recent and 'touristy', the blade caught my eye as possibly having some age and being in need of a good home.

The entire piece is 55" (from butt to tip of the blade; not including the scabbard). The blade is just under 10", and suffered the tip breaking off at some point.

Any feedback is, as always, greatly appreciated.

Here are some pictures. The tiles here are 6"x6".

Cheers!
