Thank-you
I did not think that this handle was of the Ganesh type because we can guess a squatting human form but there is nothing to symbolize the trunk.

But indeed, the style of the grip reminded me of North Java while the scabbard and mendak seemed more in an East Java style.

I very very rarely know how to find the origin of a blade, but here it is so worn and also seems to have been shortened, it is totally impossible for me (and perhaps impossible at all).
