Re: Medieval sword

A knight’s sword, c.1250—1300, with a narrow blade, light enough to use on foot. This sword has a spear-point blade and impressive cutting and thrusting capabilities.I think this might put you on the right track. there one here that is very close to yours. not sure of worth.. Good luck If it was used on chain link armor it would have a sharp point.  also try looking at Norman..swords

Re: Medieval sword

Swords like this really more Relics than Collectibles and require the services of a Specialist and a physical examination to appraise them. I'd suggest contacting Sotheby's or Christies auctions for a referral.
