Description

Slightly curved spear pointed blade, unfullered with false edge. One-piece cast brass hilt with ribbed grip, forward curving quillon with comma-shaped finial and simple knucklebow, domed pommel. Black leather scabbard with brass locket and chape, the locket with oval frog stud, the chape piece partly internal with leather covering, with ball finial on the exposed lower section.

Blade 65.5cm in length, the sword 78.4cm overall.

The blade is bright with a polished finish, only a few tiny spots of patination and old polishing marks. Its edge is sharp with a number of nicks, its tip is undamaged. The brass hilt is likewise bright with a few spots of patination and a few small dents. The scabbard fittings have a midtone patina with some darker spots and a couple of tiny dents - one slightly larger dent to the chape piece which does not interfere with sheathing and drawing.

The leather of the scabbard has a few dents and some cracking on the front face but remains sound overall. Its stitching has opened slightly in the section covering the internal chape, perhaps due to shrinkage, but there are paired brass rivets on either side which help secure the leather so it is unlikely to open any further.
