@Fernando beautiful sword, thanks.
there is a possibility that the pas d'ane/donkey hoof is removed, in it's working life?, see pictures of the 2-handed swords for an almost identical sword, image the sword in the bottom center.
@Michael, the quillon form is quite rare but not so unusual, see swords form Landeszeughaus graz for example.
best,
