No maker’s mark. Probably made at the height of World War One.
31 3/4 Inch plain pipe back blade with quill point in good condition and firm in the hilt. The hilt with some age / wear but good, just so the faux fishskin grip and twisted grip wire bindings. The black painted scabbard has lost its mouth / throat piece and suspension mount / ring, plus has a few small dings and scrapes, but is otherwise sound / good. The sword sheathes and draws quite well.
Nice honest example at nice low price; was £? (too late, now sold). Please quote item reference X58. Further / full sized images available upon request. Triangle 1312-105×16 (1.554).
