Not my area , but looking at the habaki fit, Id guess the blade is from a cut down katana. Probably nothing of interest, under the grip.

Who makes such ethnographic tribal grips in Asia though?

As an aside, Im told many surrendered Japanese sword were snapped in half after ww2 in the some Philippian islands & used at half length as agricultural knives... 2 for the price of one....
