Machete Gurus: Can you identify this machete?

[Guyon]

Found this one cleaning out some stuff in the house that belonged to my mother-in-law. I think it's a BOKER, but the mark does not look like the tree brand symbol. Also, the first and last letters are a bit hard to make out. I think the first letter is a B, but the interior portion is hard to see for sure. The last letter could be an R, but it also looks like a B in certain light.

Blade is over 2 feet long, and it has what looks like a lucite handle. Came in a pretty neat old leather sheath.

Has anyone seen this maker's mark before?
