If you use the Search button above under the word "parabolic", you may find discussions on these peculiarities.
There is one measurement you could take that will give a real idea of the blade curvature, a parameter which we call "flecha" (arrow) over here.

,
The depth of the curve in the middle of the blade (between the two ends) is 11 cm. It's the most curved of my "intriguing" British swords.
