Description:

Measuring 7 1/2 inches long, the blade is marked "J. DAVIS/ 69LEADENHALL St." on the left side. Silver handguard, with symmetrical stepped-down quillions. German silver grip, with a pair of pinned smooth mother of pearl grip panels and silver raised lions heads on the pommel. Tan leather sheath, with silver frog stud, throat and tip.

Rating Definition:

Very good. Shallow pitting is visible on the blade, a mixed aged patina on the silver parts, leather shows light wear and minimal handling marks are present overall. Grip panels are very good with a small old repair and highly attractive color to the mother of pearl grips.
