Is this an older Windlass model? I can't seem to match it to any I can find in their older offerings. (Edit) Here are the dimensions: Overall length 38 1/2 In Blade 32 1/2 In Weight 2LB 10 oz Attachments:

That is definitely a Windlass scabbard. Little short in the blade. Lot of in hand weight with the brass. Great looking hilt. I saw this, but the 16th Cent rack is full right now...

It's an old Windlass sword, that they had in the late 90s and early 2000s. It was called Brass hilt Cut & Thrust, if I remember correctly. I used to have one, I got in 2001. Here is after I wrapped it with leather.

Razor, do you think it was a good sword? Do you have any idea if it had a Del Tin blade?

It's a Windlass not a Del Tin. It's a good solid sword, I did some pell work with it before I sharpened it.
With it's POB it's more of a cutting sword than a cut n thrust sword. The blade is closer to a type XII with no distal taper. It's an older sword and I think made before they started making whippy swords because it's not whippy at all.
