1822 The Rifles Officers Sword and Scabbard
The Rifle’s Sword, which founded the pattern later assumed by all guards’ regiments has a straight high carbon, hardened and tempered steel blade etched with the regimental crest.
The nickel-plated steel guard of the Rifle Regiment Sword is pierced and etched with a scroll pattern that includes the regiment’s own cypher in place of the Royal cypher. Similarly, Guards Hilts display their own regimental cypher on the hilt.
The grip is finished in black fish-skin and bound with silver-plated copper wire. The sword is available with a brown leather scabbard for service wear or a nickel-plated steel scabbard for full dress occasions.
