It measures 12 inches overall, with a 7 1/2 inch clip point blade that is marked "J.DAVIS/69 LEADENHALL ST" on the left. The scalloped guard is of German silver, as is the ornate lion face pommel. It is fitted with a pair of smooth grip scales. Includes a leather wrapped sheath with German silver fittings and some old, faint ink marked numbers on the leather.

Very good, the blade mostly bright with some scattered patches of light pitting, bright German silver, and the grips having a few small hairline cracks. The sheath is very good with some mild wear.
