The attached photos are of an M1840 Musicians sword I purchased the other day. Comparing it to other blades of its model, I’ve noticed that the stopped fuller seems to be rather uncommon, most of the swords sporting a fuller that goes nearly to the tip.
The stamp shown is the only one in the pictures from the sale. I’ll do an inspection when it arrives to see if I can find more stamps. Does anyone have suggestions for why the stopped fuller or which company may have made this sword?
