Hello Martin,
I found a comparable piece in an old catalog of mine. It is Italian m1887 Campagnie di Sanita, a sapper's/military engineer's sword as pictured in Armi Bianci, pg 73. I did a google search and found a pic, unfortunately I'm not so good at posting such. Search for the 'm1887 Campagnie di Sanita' and when the titles pull up, check out the action house listing titled-
'daga a sega mod.1887- San Giorgio Casa d' Aste'
It's Lot n 1148. Very interesting and rare sword.
Mark
