I picked up this sword blade from a friend of mine, who dug it in Nashville Tenn. about 20 years ago he said. After closer examination of the blade, you can see that it is acid etched on about half of the blade, with cross flags and a floral design. Although the hand guard is missing, what a great find. This sword blade is an import, probably French, and the design dates it back to 1812-1820.
