Default Visayan Kukri?

Does any forumite recognise what kind of blade this is?
It looks like an oversized sickle but holding it in the reverse grip the balance is wrong.
If I however hold it in a hammer grip, like a Kukri, the balance is perfect.
The edge is on the inside and it's quite heavy.
To heavy IMO to be an agricultural tool.
The blade is 38 cm, almost 15".
