The blade was probably period-shortened. I have seen several near identical Solingen blades with multi-fullered ricassos, dating to the end of 16th c. They reused many sword parts back then. Doesn't mean it's a recent composite, just a munitions-grade trooper's sword from the mid-17th c. with an earlier blade.
