Kronckew,

Yes, after your last pictures I see that the guard of your sabre is identical to the dutch klewang and the American MILSCO cutlass.

But I still doubt if you may call it a Dutch KNIL klewang because of the German Solingen mark. I don't think the Dutch army used German manufactured weapons, especially in that period.
