Does it have an edge? It looks a bit like a toy, both in size and in construction.

Have no clue but that's something cool to find. Toy or not.
(I will agree, once BC mentioned toy, that is what it looks like.)Ground Defense 1, Blade Defense 1, Defensive Pistol 1 & 2, Aliance Shoot House, When Things Go Bad, YSINTG, Carbine 1, DART Medical, NRA Range Safety Officer

Looks like a short sword. Roman empire used them a lot, yours is not from that time period though. Tool marks on the brass are from a more modern grinder.
Actually this looks more like a French Infantry Short Sword...

What is lucky about finding a relic in a country where all relics belong to the government? Sounds like a Christmas where you get everything you dreamed of but it belongs to a total stranger so you never get to use it again.
