A very early European hunting sword.  From our research we date this sword from 1720 to 1770.  It has an ivory and engraved brass handle in the form of an animal’s hoof, and an “s” shaped quillion ending in hoofs.  The brass langet is in the shape of a bird.  The iron blade is engraved with words, we can not decipher, and some decorative designs.
