Running wolf on Timor sword

Hello. I think this is my first post in this sub-forum. It was suggested that I post here for comments on this blade. This is found on a sword from Timor group of islands with characteristic rooster head pommel design. The sword may be from late 19th century or early 20th century but the blade apparently much older. Any comments would be appreciated. Note that this is as received and not cleaned nor rust removed yet.
