It seems that the 4 over K4 in this case is not the special forces K4 regiment founded in 1928 . This sword was issued to 4th squadren/company, Ingelstad Smaland Hussar adopting K4 designation 1822 {4th cavalry} dissbanded 1927. The removal of the swedish crown was usually done by Finns as they were not Swedes.
