Hello everyone,
Thank you for your opinions and the valuable details that accompany them. I was thinking of an early sword of flank officers with a blade for close combat. The details you give, reassure me and now, just like you, I think efectively it can be a late 18th sword for Flank Officers... I love this type of sword, I already have 3 and I do not get tired of watching them, keeping them and trying to collect them.
I think I won the auction and I will soon put some more photos of the guard that seems very interesting for perhaps, having inspired that of Model 1803, I say maybe... but it seems to be a small but nice part of British military history

Thanks again to all of you
