Please note this item is no longer available and you were redirected to our Archives.

Hard to find 1883 pattern sword of Officers with a nine-leaf guard. These were originally authorized for the ranks of ensign through captain. The plated 26" blade is Near Mint with just a few odd scuffs. The hilt is brass based with areas of frosting remaining. The detail is great. The top of the pommel and backstrap have a five leaf cherry blossom. The rayskin grip has intact original wire wrap. The guard has a nine-leaf pattern, (see Dawson's reference pg 256). The reverse has a fold-down locking mechanism to secure the scabbard. The scabbard is leather based with matching cherry blossom fittings. The tassel is worn. There is a tag made from a shirt? with Kangi on the top ring.

  • Former owner just messaged me :The Kanji tag was there when purchased, But it was very fragile and ready to disintegrate. I thought it important to protect , so I cut a cotton shirt up and glued it to the back to preserve it.
