Hi there, first time posting here!
I've been to a fair the other day and found a blunt sword which I really liked (mostly because of the balance and weight), but the owner didn't want to sell it or trade it. He couldn't remember the name of the maker either, just the nationality - Czech (or, at least, he was pretty sure about it). The price range was about €200. The pommel is threaded.
So, does anyone know anything about who made this sword?

Look like one from Kovex. It's not their makers mark though. Ask them if it's an old one.

Looks more like Kallus / Die Ritterschmiede to me: http://www.die-ritterschmiede.com/Battle-Read...ords-.html
Heavy, overbuilt and crude, but sturdy and relatively cheap. They generally don't use threaded pommels, though, so that'd be unusual.
