Bontoc Sword

Here is another interesting sword from the auction lot I’ve got. It is marked “Bontoc. N.-Luzon Philip. Dez. 78” (December 78). So the origin looks to be clear. But I have never seen the sword like this, except that its blade resembles spears from the same region. Does anybody know, if this sword has a traditional design, or is it a modern time (70s) fantasy creation?
By the way, it has a thick, heavy and deadly sharp blade!
