Default How common was the use of Polish/Ottoman Sabres in Western Europe in the 1500s?

Were Sabres with the Polish-Hungarian or also Ottoman hilt style in wide circulation in Western Europe during the early 1500s, or were they restricted to the more eastern regions like the territory of the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth and Moscow?

I know the Western Europeans made Sabre blades, but does that mean they mounted them onto their own hilt styles during this time, and did not use polish or ottoman hilt styles?
