mine has a 29.5 in. blade as opposed to the others 30 1/8", well spotted, that extra 5/8 in. makes all the difference
. oddly enough, mine varies from straight also by 5/8 in. in the centre of the blade. it's definitely magyar tho. (the smith is a magyar
) just made a bit later than the one in post #1. no sweated on edge thingy tho.
looks a bit longer in this photo:
it's all in the angles.
p.s. - the thumb ring for me at least is more comfortable with the finger
behind the sword guard rather than in front. shown here on a 15c magyar sabre repro, it's even more uncomfortable on the 9c one with it's thicker bronze guard.
