I would suggest that Manton & Co have nothing to do with this sword whatsoever. They have been out of business for too long, and anyway were quality GUN makers. They may have sold swords, but as far as I am aware did not make them.
As for this being a presentation sword TOTALY made by Wilkinson, I would rather doubt it. They would not have hilted a quality blade with a hilt like this IMHO.
I believe you have something knobbled together.....
