Hunting Sword no.2

[Norman McCormick]

Hi,
Second sword is probably latter part of the 18thC and from net search seems more than likely to be French. O.A. length 26 1/2 inches blade 20 1/2 inches, just over 1 inch at widest and 5/8 of an inch at thickest with an ebony hilt. This one has no makers mark that I can detect but does have the type of blade decor one associates with second half the 18thC i.e stand of arms etc. Unfortunately most of the decoration is quite faint as appearances would suggest the sword has been sharpened regularly and still has, as has the other, a reasonably keen edge. As usual all comments and further info sought.
Regards,
Norman.

P.S. It would appear a previous owner has glued the scabbard locket to the leather the wrong way round.
