Officers sword pattern 1796 for Light Cavalry?

There could definitely be something to that Fernando, maybe the blade was taken back to England and furnished there? The date is what really throws me off though. I can also said that I’ve spent countless hours looking at these models and I’ve never seen one with small langets like this, the blade is also quite unique but the tip past the yelman certainly has that Spanish style with a flat center and wide symmetrical distal taper on both sides.. Radbiund could you explain that a bit? When I get home I can take some better pictures of the scabbard.
