I accidentally found out some information on the stamps on the blade, as usual
the forum came through. Here's the link but the C or G issue isn't helped by this weak triple stamping. at best it sort of says not later than 1858.

Not knowing for sure but, assuming the second sword often carried would be for backup. it now seems likely the backup sword was for a different fighting style or circumstances.
