This is most probably one of the 8000 swords - tessak in Norwegian - bought for resale to Norwegian farmers by Danish king Christian IV between 1589 and 1608. But the blade decorations? The blade is as far as I can see and have read, a correct blade for the hilt and period.

Hoping for an answer...
