I'd say Luzon ; revolutionary soldier's bolo .
Doubtfully Katipunan .

Probably used for splitting campfire wood ; likely used as a froe (or for butchering) with a heavier metal object (or rock) used to hit against the spine .
I have had an example with these same kinds of abuse marks on the spine .
See center example below .
