Pattern British Sword?
4 Attachment(s)
Just bought this and waiting for it to come in. Some pictures attached. Appears to have a Crowned G?
Appreciate any comments |
It doesn't appear to be any of the pattern swords. The 1788 spadroons had a wide variety of guards but the pattern mandated a 32" blade so it's not one of those.
Of course there were a huge range of regimental and militia swords that did not conform to the patterns so it could certainly be one of those. A straight backsword blade, looking to be quite broad but not overly long with a simple knuckle bow hand guard makes me think of pioneer swords and similar. Hopefully someone with an idea of what it actually is may chime in. Robert |
Thank you Robert. Could this be an infantry hanger given its dimensions? If you google 1780 British Infantry hanger something similar comes up.
