Would This Indian Sword Classify as a Sousson Patah???

Based on the commentary above I am attaching pics that I believe illustrate the kopis influenced blade styles in several sizes, and the more traditionally accepted sousson patah of the 19th century.

The third picture may be a combination or "morphing" of the two blade types. It is also likely early to mid 19th century with chiseling to mimic a reinforced spine.

The last picture is of a massive kirach mounted on a khanda hilt.
