I have one more thing to add.
I just found out that the grip is connected to the blade with a nut through top of the pommel. This nut could be easily removed, without damaging the sword, with help of some gun oil. Could it be a possible indication that the guard with the grip was a later addition (possible 19th century) to 18th century sword?

Thanks,
Aleks
