I have had this sword for over five years now and I still am not quite surtain what type of sword it is. I have my guesses but if anyone else would be able to tell me then that would be great. it was actually this sword that inspired me to look more into swords and history. if it wasn't for this museum peace then I may not be striving to become an archeologist.

I would second the theatrical (or Vic repro?) notion. Especially since the blade and grip are so "square" in profile. A period piece would have considerably more profile taper to the blade.
I agree w/ Nate C.; it definitely looks like a victorian repro i've seen. Cool and interesting none-the-less. Looks to be based off a Spanish sword. (The modern incarnation is the stainless steel "El Cid" sword by a Spanish company)
