Sword Play

I think everyone should own at least one sword, don't you?
I've owned the one pictured above for over 60 years.  
I was about 15 rears old when my grandfather found it in the attic of a house he was demolishing in the Montrose area of Houston. Other than that, I don't know anything at all about its history.
I've searched the internet for one like it, and, although I found some that are similar, I have not been able to find an exact match.
The scabbard is plain, but the sword itself is highly engraved from the tip to the pommel.  The only other things Pop salvaged from that attic was a leather football helmet and an old annual from Kincaid High School.
