French revolutionary light cavalry sword

I should say "probably" because very little is know about those swords.
It is here presented along with a French 1882 model, found in the same house clearing.
The best part is that it is marked by the maker from Paris; Liger.
Sadly missing the scabbard.

Damn it Kris..it appears that i was born on the wrong side of the globe!

Any chance of seeing it without the reflection?

Hey Tim,
I am aware of the fact that this part of the globe is a great place to live (mostly!). ;-)
I need to make better pic's, I 'll do so asap.
Need those pic's anyway because I am not going to keep it.

o-0.

Yes....well hmmph.

Not keeping it?

Really?

[stuka f]

I would if it was complete, but it is missing the scabbard.
Those swords are handmade, so not any (suitable!) scabbard would fit.
My guess is that it has been picked up from a battle field, but it remains a guess.

Better pics (??!);

That my friend, is magnificent.

I wish you well on the selling - I just wish I had the cash to secure it.

Cheers

Some more French revolution hardware.
A well marked AN pike.
I added the dagger to get a idea of how big it is.
