*British, 1897 Pattern, Edward VII (1901-1910) Officers Infantry Sword *

The 1897 pattern infantry officers’ sword is a straight-bladed, three-quarter basket-hilted sword that has been the regulation sword for officers of the line infantry of the British Army from 1897 to the present day. The 1897 pattern is distinguished from the 1895 pattern by the turn-up on the inner edge coupled with the generally smaller holes in the decoration of the guard on the hilt, though they are fundamentally very similar. The sword bears the serial number 1895 on the spine.

An 1897 Pattern Infantry Officer's dress sword, 32 1/4-inch blade with half-length fuller and Arabesque decoration, proof button and engraved T. T. in the fuller which may have been the owners initials, pierced white-metal guard with Edward VII monogram and wire-bound mesh grip.

*Condition*
This sword is in good condition but without a scabbard. The blade is heavily pitted and discoloured. Please see photographs as part of the condition report.
