Intriguing British sword to identify

[Belgian1]

Good evening Jim,
It is with pleasure that I will share other best photos, as soon as I have it in hand. Indeed, I have long been attracted by British swords very and sometimes too curved without knowing the real reason. For my part, I read "somewhere" that these blades short and more curved were for easier use in the woods and groves during skirmishes. But indeed, it would be interesting to know more about these units of harassment and elites who were probably sent to tire the enemy with the skirmishes ........ ????
See you soon and thank you for your contribution to this topic
