Washington swords
From what my cursory research tells me, Washington was recognised as having nine swords altogether. Apart from the two I have illustrated, I've seen another colichemarde with a cut-steel hilt, most probably from Matthew Boulton by the look of it. There were two cuttoes that I've found so far. A French epee (1767 style) and the fancy presentation broadsword.
I don't know what the others are- does anybody?
