If Filipino, I would say late 19th century and Ilocano from the Spanish influence in the hilt, the tang through the hilt - Luzono, and the wavy blade - Ilocano in this case. I would add officer's grade as well.

What I don't know is if the Spanish imported the wavy blade influence into their tastes from the Philippines.......
