I AM NO EXPERT IN THESE SO ITS POSSIBLE ITS FROM SOME SUB TRIBE OR SOMETHING BUT IT LOOKS LIKE A TYPICAL EXAMPLE OF SONGE AX TO ME.
THE BLADE SHAPE AND FORM IS TYPICAL SOME HAVE PIERCED BLADES SOME EVEN INLAYED WITH COPPER OR BRASS. MONITOR LIZARD SKIN COVERING THE HANDLE IS ALSO COMMON, SO I WOULD SAY SONGE AX.
