I have this thing which I suspect it could be a Swedish haudegen from the time of Lützen.
Measurements are something like 117cm total length, 93cm blade and 1495gr total weight. There is a thumb ring. The handle shows wire marks. The front edge seems to have been sharpened more often than the back.
In spite of the huge size and weight, it handles nicely, specially with a gauntlet.

It could be a Victorian monstruosity as well.
