Really pitted rapier in full length

It looks to me like a german sword from the end of the 16th Century. The diamond or romboidal profile of the whole blade, the proportions and the form of the quillon makes me think so. Of course, I can be wrong, it is mostly a speculation and not a fact. If somebody knows better, please correct me.
There is a picture of a similar sword here:

I expect it is not the same sword.
