the blade is a Montmorency type, with a big and a small fuller to add more stiffness to the blade. This type was pretty popular in the late 18th and early 19th century, the French Model 1822 as a mass produced saber for example. The blade is pattern welded steel, probably of european origin and could be up to 200 years or more old. Almost 100% not 20th ct.. Roland |
