Different Borneo sword

I did spend some time this afternoon, searching one with a similar blunt tip, but was unable to find anything what even looks like it (privat- and museumcollections).
Only one matched, but of particular piece I'm sure it had been cut off (I discussed that one with Arjan quite a while ago), as seen on the decoration which was also "cut off" at the end.....

Attached image: partly image of the ex Nijmegen museum piece of a similar decorated blade, showing the tip.
