    John,
    Looks Scots to me mate from its general bearing, and ones I have seen before. Be interested to hear what the experts say. The strikes on its edge show it was clearly used effectively for which it was intended. Almost has the presence of a Basket Hill backsword which had Germanicon blades around the 1750's
