Regimental Sword - Infantry Pattern

The donor of this sword is currently unknown. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Manufactured by Firmin and Sons Ltd. It is believed to be an "1897 Pattern, one of the most common British swords found today and is nearly identical to the 1895 Pattern, the only two differences being that the inner portion of the guard has now been turned down to form a lipped edge less likely to fray clothing, and the perforations in the guard were made smaller for greater hand protection. This Pattern is still in service today." Matthew Forde Military Antiques (This description requires confirmation in addition to photos of the actual sword.)
