I agree with Mark. The style is definitely Kachin in influence. but just where it comes from is open to question. The decorations on the blade resemble a couple of my 19th C. darb from Thailand (different tips).

This one could date anywhere from about 1850 to 1940. I think it is probably late 19th C. Nice find.
