The "monster face" sword is not from the Philippines.
But I don't know exactly what it is though. I am thinking between a Sumatran pedang II, but it could be a javanese sword also when I look at the scabbard end.

I'm sure people of the forum with more knowledge on these swords can tell exactly what it is.
