Small sword for comments

Sorry for the mess. I wrote Chateaurenault instead of Chatellerault but that did not seem correct. Of course it should have been Klingenthal.

I have one of those two channeled blades mounted with a XIXth century copy of a XVI th century hispano-flemish hilt. The Couleux inscription was erased but not beyond recognition.

I take notice for the long ricassos... never say never...

Originally they were for all kind of dress sword shortly after Napoleon III.
This one is for medical staff.
