Hi Radboud,
Lovely sword and great that you got a definite attribution something that is not always possible. I have attached a further photo of the hilt of my sword and a copy of an article on an identified English officers sword. First notice the similarity of the boatshell guard and d-guard on your sword and the English officers sword. Second the similarity of the d-guard, grip and pommel on my sword and the English officers sword. Seems to me there is a common source for parts or certainly a fashion element used by different manufacturers/suppliers/assemblers.
My Regards,
Norman.
