Hi Charles, it is a nice old sword, thanks for showing.
The sword is not a kirach, and as I see it it is not a sossun pata either.
I think Runjeet is on the right track, about it being a variation of an old southern sword type. Somewhere I have a picture of a blade like this, although much heavier, but I have not yet been able to locate the picture.
