My guess: it is a Philippine sword circa 1900 made in Bicol. It has the right blade shape, Luzon peened tang, and the shell guard (although in this case it is slightly modified). Handle could be carabao horn or some dark Philippine hardwood.

Hello Dmitry,

I see no similarities at all with a parang nabur (beladah belabang).
And IMO it isn't also a SHAVER COOL BELADAH BELABANG....
