I am very sorry, but my first reaction is that this is a recent reproduction.
The main reasons for this are the very coarse forging, especially the cross and the pommel, unusual inlay decoration, even oxidation and even patination over the sword.
All in all, the sword gives me an unconvincingly or uncomfortable feeling.

if it's your sword, I would advise to have it investigated further and hope that I'm wrong.

best,
