Default Portuguese cavalry sabre for sale

Three bar hilt Cavalry Officer Pattern 1886. Faint marks on guard still read FA 1897 6218 ... meanning Arms Factory year 1897 nš 6218.
Not a top grade condition piece, specialy the scabbard, which is not considered in the price.
Heavy blade, 10 m/m thick and 85 m/m long; in a good condition, except for the tip, which is complete but has little some disturbances; easy to even up with some filing, though.
Portuguese swords are not easy tob find, in any condition.
Selling for 220 Euros.
Fernando
