Service Sharpened Napoleonic Era French Briquet Sabre Sword ca.1810

Description

For your consideration is this French briquet sabre from the Napoleonic era. The large, slightly curved, unfullered blade shows evidence of having been sharpened a long time ago. There is some pitting on the blade but no active rust, as well as a couple of nicks/chips on the edge. I believe this is a different blade than what you’d normally find on one of these. Many had a thinner blade with a fuller running 3/4 the way along its length. It’s also noticeably longer & heavier than other briquet swords from the late 1700’s-early 1800’s I’ve handled.
