Hoof shaped quillion, clamshell languet and ivory grips with 3 acorns on each panel. Black leather sheath, with an acorn shaped frog stud.

Condition
Very fine. The blade retains most of the etching and has some very light spotting. Two acorns are missing from the grip. The ivory has an attractive aged color and grain. There is an area of green discoloration on the pommel area. The sheath is very good with scuffing on the leather.
