Okay, Norman, thanks for the correction.

It occurred to me this morning that a pipeback is an odd choice for a cavalry sword. Nonetheless some of the early 181 3-bar hilt swords were certainly pipeback. I was the happy owner of one of them a few years ago.

The blades of these did resemble the 1822 pattern blade, if I recall correctly.
