A sword specifically designed for beheading often doesn't have a tip, which is normal because it doesn't need a stabbing function. Its heavy weight makes it more effective for chopping. As for the era, I don't think it's a modern piece. I recently also purchased a Chinese beheading sword, which has a broad blade suitable for chopping.
