What do you think about European blade Indian pata sword? I remember that they are often found.

 I think, and I have practised with pata-sword a lot, that for such weapon (and may be for broadswords in general, I am not sure) it is no difference what kind of blade there is. But not for tulwars (sabres).
P.S. I know about 1796 for irregular cavalry ))
