I do not know what kind of sabre this is, but what I know is that this is not a French piece.
I have checked all volumes of Christian Aries "Armes Blanches Militaires Francaises" and all other French reference books concerning French swords and I am absolutely sure that this is no French sabre. This kind of hilt is totally unknown with French sabres of any age.
