Could it be late pattern dress sword? As in something used today? It looks real just not old. I can't make out ANY markings on it.

A member of the Gunboards IDed it as Prussian Curiasseur Model 1880. Also known as a Kurrasier Officer's Pallosch....GERMAN PRUSSIAN CUIRASSIER OFFICER282148)


The leather tab was for the finger to steady the blade during fencing....
