				 |  swedish cutlass ? 
			
			Hello everybody, I bought this cutlass without knowing it's origin, I liked his kukri shape like ! I think it's a real old model I found informations telling it is a swedish ? naval knife-cutlass Do specialists know these ''stamps'' : A&E.H a crown and GvA on the guard a 1848 or Later edition ? ? Kind regards |

			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 |
