In good overall condition, a British ERII Royal Navy Officer's Wilkinson Sword, Knot, Scabbard and Case.

Serial number 106473 for 1977, this sword has rust patches towards the tip and some corrosion to the lower scabbard fitting which prevent it from being parade ground condition, though someone like Crisp & Sons could refurbish it, or some careful bronze and silver paint maybe able to adequately disguise it.

The scabbard is good, some fading to the leather, some corrosion to the chape. Sword know and all weather case generally very good for age.

Could be made to shine again. Yours to try for £? (too late, now sold). Please quote item reference AE52 (0900). Further / full sized images available upon request.
