Default Schnitzer & kirschbaum

Dear collectors ,

I would be interested to know a little bit more on these german makers Schnitzler & Kirschbaum from Solingen in Germany .
What kind of production period could we consider ?
I was told (?) 1822 to 1865 but other opinion that Wilhelm Bernhard Samuel Kirschbaum and Phillip Jacob Wilhelm Schnitzler set up "Schnitzler & Kirschbaum" in 1797...
I recently noticed a sword with all the characteristics of a French 1st Empire sword with the S and K ( NOT K and S for Kirschbaum and Schimmelbusch ) marking on the ricasso .
So wide distribution by S & K that difficult with only this marking to identify and confirmed a Napoleonic sword !!
Thank you for your comments and opinions
