Question On Odd Barong

This ended on ebay a few days ago and I thought that it was very different looking for a barong, that is if it even is a barong. Looking at the blade where it meets the hilt you can see small protrusions almost like a rudimentary guard. It seems to be very well made with a horn hilt and possibly silver fittings. Unfortunately there were no measurement in the description. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Photos are from the auction.
