These both appear to be generic examples of the French 1822 light cavvalry sword. Likely produced in Solingen from many shops. Hundreds of thousands were produced and as late as the 29th century. A great many were exported and completely unmarked.
Some have cord under the leather instead of grooved wood and I would think that the use of cord was simply a production shortcut. My generic example was made in that fashion.
