Sword Identification?

Thanks for posting your sword Kronckew, out of interest would it be possible posting a photo of the blade with a ruler showing the profile at the 24 inch mark?

The French m1845 I had the opportunity to measure had a 77cm blade, the posters is 60cm so it’s some half a foot shorter. If, and I mean that is as possibility not a statement of fact, it has been shortened then the quill point of the m1845 is irrelevant.
