EL6400 - A scarce 1889 pattern infantry staff sergeant's sword, by Wilkinson, with numerous stamps. The sword was originally made in 1891, but it seems to have been re-issued or refurbished a few times after that, according to the markings. The blade, very unusually, has been service sharpened. In good condition overall, with a clean, bright blade and hilt. There is a little bit of loss to the grip wire and one screw missing from the scabbard throat.
