The 1828 Pattern Highland Officer’s Sword was issued to Officers of Scottish Highland Regiments such as the 92nd Regiment of Foot – The Gordon Highlanders. It was carried throughout many campaigns throughout the 19th Century and even saw service in WWI. Sergeants of such regiments were often issued with a plain bladed version.
Our 1828 Pattern Highland Officer’s Sword is handcrafted like the originals and features a forged and tempered AISI1065 High Carbon Steel blade. The steel hilt features a red cloth liner, brown leather grip and red pommel tassel. The etched blade is housed in an authentically styled steel scabbard.
