British Heavy Cavalry Sword - 1796 Pattern

The blade is forged with a single broad fuller on each side. The grip is of ribbed leather. The basket guard has ears which are riveted through the tang of the blade to give the hilt and blade a very secure connection.

The hilt combines a disc guard pierced with 2 semicircular and 6 oval holes, with a single knucklebow and two slim 2" long langets (projections from the guard, which grip the throat of the scabbard) extending from the front of the guard. Includes steel scabbard.
