12th-13th Century Jinete Swords?

These are all extremely helpful. The effigy in the second reply is essentially my last missing piece to this puzzle, besides the belt. Thank you very much for your reply, Mark!

I do just want to let you know that some of the images seem to not have loaded correctly.

Edit: Whoops, that seems to have been a problem on my end. All fixed now!

Just to add to this thread- here is an interesting sword from the Testament of Alfonso II, from the Book of Testaments, early 12th century.

I find that my sword
Looks a little like these swords.

I remember your Thread, Almonzo. That's a very interesting sword!

I have still to get to the foundational literature on Spanish arms, but I would be a little surprised if that sword was Spanish, or from 13th century Europe in general. However, with that said, you do see small curved guards slightly similar to that in, for instance, the El Puig altarpiece.
