Hello. Not sure where or what time period this sword originated so appreciate any insights. Big sword at 46” length. The blade is very stiff with rolled edges, like a double spine, with a groove down the center. A stamped mark at the forte looks kind of like a sword. The blade portion is very spear like. Strong median ridge and thickened long point. The design is for strong thrusts. There are some markings on the blade to both sides. Seems to have some good age to it. Hoping the markings give some insights. Thanks for your assistance.
