The 31 7/8 inch blade is in very good condition, no maker's / retailer's name, so most likely a war time sword. Blade firm in the hilt. The hilt in very good condition, as is the grip (a couple of lesser grip wire strands very slightly astray). The scabbard generally good but with quite a bit of wear to the chape / drag. The sword sheathes and draws well. The black sword knot says this sword was for a rifles officer.

Nice example, low price; £? (too late, now sold). Please quote item reference Q10 (0318). Further / full sized images available upon request.
