What kind of sword?

[Del Panfini]

A friend at work said he has a Japanese Samari sword. He brought it in & I was expecting a Japanese sword that I am used to seeing but I have no idea what this is. I took the pics real quick on my lunch break & a few are not that clear but I think you can get the idea. If anyone has any idea, please let me know. I would appreciate it.

Not Japanese. Looks like something from SE Asia. Philippines, Borneo, Indonesia or somewhere around there.

It looks like a Burmese Dha.

Its a new turist sword from Burma with no value.

Thank you for all your quick replies. The sword was a bring back. My friend said it was from a WW1 veteran obtained from the vet's widow in the 1960's while cleaning out her garage. My thoughts on it were that maybe it was a WW2 veteran & my friend got the story wrong because it looks like one of the swords that might have been put together by the Phillipinos for the returning veterans.

Thanks again,
Del
