swedish cutlass ?

[MacCathain]

The Swedish fascine knife m1848 was originally intended for the infantry, or at least parts of it. It seems to have become a standard infantry sidearm on the whole, and some examples are thought to have been used by police forces.

Some personnel in units of the coastal artillery were originally in the army, but transferred to the navy (which had responsibility for coastal artillery operations), and brought their sidearms with them. Some of these had the m/1848. This seems to be the extent of its use in the navy.

The trooper shown in the photo is of the Norrlands Trainkår, a train regiment, which handled the logistical requirements of troop equipment and supply.
