You are surely jesting, my good sir.
Oh, you indeed were?
Well Senhor, what can you expect from small croppings of crappy large old pictures?
: P
Nah, the problem wit the denomination you suggest is that it is not distinctive enough, since it may well be applied also to estoc pyramidal crosscut blades ( like most socket bayonets).
The "Three corners and concave tables" is much better, yet too lengthy to be practical. Yet both it and the French "blade with two hollow sides" do not address the counterpart face with the valley/central depression. (Not really a groove).
This type of blade is very attractive, delicate, even elegant. Circa early to Mid17th C. It
doths remind me of a leaf and it's stem. Seems to be a link between former broad blades and colichemarde pyramidal hollow blades.
Surely, there must be many more around with this typology.
What do you say, mes sieurs?
Bestest Regards
Manolo

But i'd say we call it here "lamina de tres quinas e mesas concavas".
... Pick up your notions of galego 
I guess in French would be called "lame à deux pans creux". |
