Jineta European sword

Those markings in the blade fullers ring a bell, I've seen them before... Like on military manufacture from early- mid 20th cent. Spain -- Fábrica Nacional de Toledo, or the Santa Bárbara arsenal at La Coruña.

You are right, I have a Spanish bayonet M1941 with the same marking.
For my personal taste it is a nice and decorative reproduction and no junk. It seems to have some age, maybe it was made in the second third of the 20th century.
