What Jim showed, the British 1788 Pattern Light Cavalry sabre is probably the most frequently-seen example of what I call the "Hussar hilt" sabers. Without the surviving markings they are tough to id 100%, unless an identical marked example surfaces. I have a vaguely-similarly-hilted one in my collection, lack of langets aside...they are, for the lack of better words, cool!
