I don't think it's been modified much at all - just had the quillons removed. It looks like it would have been the brass-hilted cousin to the attached sword.

Alas, I don't know what this sword actually is. It looks like a hunting sword, but is very plain. Horn grip, 485g, 9mm thick at the hilt, 5mm thick mid-blade, 3mm thick at 5cm from the tip.

If your sword is much heavier than this, it might be a military pioneer/engineer/artillery sword.
