Default Boy's sword / Hunting Hanger?

Just going by the dimensions of the handle (that may accomodate a hand 2.5 inches wide), and looking at the finger-grips, this would seem to be a sword for a child. Even tulwar disc-pommel grips, which are very small, are bigger than this. On a different tack, "minature" swords are known from Europe to Mexico, for cadets, for hunting (as an aristocratic past-time) and status etc.
