British Historical Military Swords

1
So on a bit of a whim, I've started to look into historical weaponry as a bit of research for a project I've been working on for the last six months or so. I've done some searching through sites I know of, but I've come up a bit lacking, so I figured I'd come and ask you fine folks if anyone knows where I should be looking for what I want/need.

I'm looking for historical swords, namely those used by British/French navy during the Napoleonic wars and a bit beyond (think 1800-1840 max). I've tried a few sites and while they have some pieces to offer, I can't be sure of their accuracy. I don't really know the best sites out there that would offer historical reproductions as thus far my weaponry collection is replicas from films, and the two areas are quite different.
