Hello Sajen,
IMHO by looking at the blade (it looks to be mono-steel) and the finish of the horse hoof style horn grip, the brass casting of the guard and the embossing on the leather sheath I would have to say that this piece is from WWII or later. I hope this is of some small help.

Hello Robert,

thank you for reply. This is what I have thought, but I am not so firm by blades from the Philippines.
