This is the original Napoleonic model of a sword which became popular throughout northern Europe after Napoleon’s defeat. It became known as the briquet after the French flint striker or fire starter. It was copied widely for decades. As well, captured French examples were refurbished for reuse.

This example bears the inscription. Manf imper du Klingenthal which specifically dates it to Napoleon’s First Empire of 1804-14. It undoubtedly served in the Napoleonic Wars.
