Spanish colonial short sword?

[Yvain]

Thanks for your answers!



It is rather hard to measure the edge since I don't have calipers at hand, but I definitely see no grind, and the edge is roughly 1mm thick in the first half of the blade, roughly 0.7mm thick on the second part, and it thickens back to 2mm at the point.


Jim, thanks a lot for the detailed information! What do you think of this specimen in itself?
