Irish Army Officers CIIIR Sword and Scabbard

Irish Army Officers CIIIR Sword and Scabbard

The Irish Army Officers sword is a derivative of Guards or LI pattern 1827 pattern, featuring the 1892 (due to iteration) blade with its own unique etching pattern and a much simplified, yet distinctive guards style hilt.

The current M.O.D regulation Royal Naval officers sword features a hand sculpted 24 karat gold-plated lions head pommel, 24 karat gold-plated basket (bearing the Naval insignia) and a traditionally dyed and age dried ray skin hilt. The scabbard is hand made of black buffalo rawhide and fitted with three 24 karat gold plated mounts.
