Now that the pictures are ok !...
The cutlass-knife came with this item sold as a dagger, I think more a shortened sword, maybe an european british model ? |

I think the brass handled one is a Bandsman's short sword.

No, as far as I'm informed this is the Swedish infantry side arm (Faschinenmesser) M 1848

Hello Thank you David and Corrado for your comments !
Thank you David for the Bandsman short sword info, I like the brass lion's head I thought about a shortened sword because the blade ends in a strange way... What do you think ? Kind regards |
