Original Item: British P-1908 Cavalry Trooper's Sword, the model on which the U.S. Patton sword was based. These had lain in pieces and disarray, probably since WWII, at the Indian Army Central Stores at JABALPUR until 1996. Each sword has been rebuilt and completely refurbished by a leading Military Contractor. Plain steel guard with original checkered wood one piece grip. Straight cavalry blade in standard all steel scabbard with two fixed mounting rings. Newly painted and fully restored, ready to display. Said to have been the finest cavalry sword ever developed.
