Following on from @victoriansword‘s post on sword grips and my one showing three more British swords. Here are three French swords of the same era. They are from top to bottom: 1. An XIII Heavy Cavalry troopers sword2. An XI Light Cavalry troopers sword3. Light Cavalry officers sword.Both the AN XIII and AN XI are big swords, larger by some margin than their British counterparts. -- source link
