Original Item: Only One Available. In the 1890s a rapid succession of regulation changes happened to British infantry officers’ swords. The change was to move away from a cut and thrust saber blade and towards a specialized straight thrusting sword.

The introduction of the new thrusting blade was quickly followed by improvements to the handle and guard of the hilt, intended to provide a better grip and greater protection to the hand.

This P-1896 Officers’ sword is a wonderful example of those changes made, and is an incredible British Infantry Officers Sword. This Victorian-era infantry officer’s sword features a single fullered etched blade and beautiful gothic style hilt in gilt brass. The basket is marked with the light infantry regiment symbol of the British Army. This is also seen on either side of the blade in the etching.

The blade ricasso has the standard 6 pointed star around a brass plug stamped PROVED, and the reverse bears the maker information:

ARMFIELDS
LTD
BIRMINGHAM

Shark skin grip is complete and shows light wear. The basket retains a fair amount of patina in some spots. The blade etching and embossing shows wear from cleaning. There is very little pitting or severe wear to the blade, though there is no play in the blade at the grip.

The scabbard is the wood leather bound type. The scabbard is straight, with minimal to no damage, and has a lovely color with all finish and stitching intact.

This would make an excellent display piece for any British Victorian Era collection. Ready to display!
