Jean Luc, without further research on this, I would say this is likely either Dutch of Flemish. The 'SAHAGOM' blades were typically Solingen (a spurious use of the Spanish makers Sahagun) and typically marketed in these North European regions. Safely placed in mid 18th c. it would seem.
A good research source is "European Court and Hunting Swords", Bashford Dean, 1929, which it seems can be found online in PDF.
Also, "The Smallsword in England", J. Aylward, 1945, which despite its title does offer some insights into Dutch swords as apparently the conventions in decoration and style were notably shared.
