When this change in blade construction isn't documented somewhere this will be only a guess and frankly said I can't guess it. But there will be also the possibility that there is an overlapping area where both styles get worked, the ones with central rib like yours and the ones with recycled blades. Your's is a well made one with a good worked scabbard, nice piece.
