It is possible that this saber reached these lands in those times...

I did find some hints when trying to identify what turned out to be a Prussian M1848 at the local museum that swords of that type may have been supplied to South America so that is very likely the source.

The langets were often removed in the field but it is entirely possible that a batch could have been ordered without them.
