The 32 inch blade is in good though aged condition, perhaps 30% blue and gilt etch remaining. Blade firm in the hilt. The hilt / guard in good condition. The original leather grip with some small patch losses, not much / many, and the associated twisted silver metal wire grip bindings are still good. There is no scabbard, but it may be worth buying a replica as the scabbards of these often fit the original swords (no guarantee given however).

Come on, a blue and gilt etched 1796 pattern British light cavalry officer's sword with rare pre-1802 Royal Coat of Arms for only £? (too late, now sold). We must be crazy! Please quote item reference number K60 (1189). Further / full sized pictures available upon request.
