1899 Pattern Cavalry Troopers Sword.
A very good example of the short lived 1899 pattern cavalry trooper’s sword. This one was painted matt khaki for use during the Boer war by cavalry or imperial yeomanry, most of the original paint still present on the hilt and scabbard with a crusty patina over the top, so totally untuched. Several marks on the blade, first proved 1901 by Enfield. The blade is in excellent condition with some dark staining, which I’m sure will clean back if desired, but it would be a shame to alter its original appearance. The chequered grips have some wear. Unusual to find this type of sword so original.
It measures 41 inches long.
Ship to UK mainland only, this is a very big sword so will be shipped via courier priced at £13.95
