My pleasure, Cerjak. Sorry I can't be more specific about your sword (the first one). In my eyes the knuckle guard design looks too elegant to be Swedish. Swedish weapons have an emphasis on functionality which gives them a particular charm of their own. There were also many Germans serving in Gustavus Adolphus army during the 30 Year War. I attach another photo from Seitz's book, this time of a sword more similar to your second one.
