German? Prussian?

Can you guys have a look at this sabre. Picture qualty isn't that great, but it's all i have at the moment.
It has WK&C Solingen logo onthe base of the blade, but the tip o the blade is confusing me.
My thaught is this is mid 19 ct German saber.
Can you tell me more?

Hi Yustas,
We have a forum here called "European Armoury", and there we discuss all types of weapons from all periods and countries, while this particular forum is primarily for ethnographic topics.

I have been calling for more European swords to be posted there for discussion, so perhaps you could post this there

All the best,
Jim
