A few more photos. Inscription on the spine is a little hard to read but looks like Clingenthal.

Length in scabbard 98.5cm, length outside scabbard 97.5cm, hilt length 16.5cm. POB approx 19.5 cm from the cross. Difficult to measure the weight using the scales that I have as the sword twists due to the curvature, so I kind of had to suspend the scales across two little tables, but it seems to be around 515 gr outside the scabbard, and the scabbard reads 393 gr. The French blade has a lot of distal taper (from 9mm at the base to 3mm at the end of the fuller) and it feels quite light in spite of the forward POB. Blade width 32mm at the base. Grip is 33mm at the broadest point, 21mm across. Cross is 91mm wide.
