Unusual sword

Hi Tim!
It is a clue, no doubt. Thought blade discussed here is of different construction of course - that one from Wallace is wider at the point and with hole to attach some horizontal bar, to prevent deeper penetrating of the blade. This one is without such feature, and holes we can see are purely for decorating purposes.

Yes a clue. Some how it does not look like a fighting weapon. I would not like to fight an opponent with this blade if they had a straight blade. There are many versions of hunting blades as your life is not so dependant on them.

What is that picture from?
