This historic infantry sword features a curved steel blade with deep acid etching of the royal cipher. The hilt is composed of a gilt brass guard and a wire-wrapped fish-skin grip. The blade shows light pitting and wear. Introduced in 1803, this pattern was carried by British infantry officers during the Napoleonic Wars. It was designed to provide a lighter and more agile combat weapon for officers leading troops in battle. The gilt brass guard features the King George III royal cipher and a lion-head pommel. It is complete with its original brass-mounted leather scabbard.
