It would be a particularly vicious practice to gut enemies using a blunt scabbard! Perhaps the story about using the notches to pick up horse reins is true after all? Or maybe French soldiers used notches on scabbards to recognize their swords amongst others? I have a French Napoleonic sabre cavalerie legere modele AN XI which has a notched M or W on the scabbard drag.
