I had been told by someone in Sweden that there were no steel hilt hussar swords made and used as official types. Contrarily, the curator of Higgins Armoury listed my hussar as Swedish 1750s-760s and was drawing from the same Wagner texts. Different in that it is a counterguard vs langet.

There was a recent thread on point notches and generally regarded as for retreival.

Cheers
