Hello!

A friend of mine bought two sabers, of which he knows nothing of. My personal era of interest is medieval, so I, too, know next to nothing of these. I only had a few minutes to inspect them, and take a few hasty pictures, so here they are

The first is a double-edged saber, both edges sharpened the entire length of the blade. No markings that I could see anywhere:










The second is hanger sword, there appears to be a myriad of these from the 18th and 19th centuries. No markings whatsoever, except perhaps something on the left side of the blade near the handguard:











Any help or guidance to the right direction will be greatly appreciated.

Both have a Scandanavian look to them. The cast gripped one actually likely later. I've lost both my Danish and Swedish museum links.

Cheers

Without being an expert the second sword's blade looks most like being a Swedish Huggare (Cutlass) Model 1748.

Though the hilt seems to look more like the Danish M/1753 infantry (Musketer) saber.

Denmark actually produced the type again with M1834 and M1838 infantry sabres.

Apparently a lot of the older swords also got replacements blades.
It strangely doesn't have any typical Danish nor Swedish markings on the guard nor the blade as far as I can see.
Could it be a Danish hilt with a Swedish blade? Perhaps a Norwegian post 1815 composite?

Yet you have so many of these swords looking very much like each other and where the some type shows lot of individual variance as well

As for the first sword it doesn't look like any Danish one (or Norwegian post 1814) I could find, so maybe a Swedish.

The blade looks like a shortened Swedish M/1825 cavalry saber.

The hilt and guard is closer to, but not quite a Swedish M/1842 cavalry saber (the blade of this type is quite different though).
