The current regulation Royal Air Force Officers’ sword as set forth by the Air Ministry in 1925. Boasting a highly polished, hand forged single edged high carbon steel blade, the gold-plated hilt is elegantly stamped with the emblem bearing cartouche of the Royal Air Force. Defined by a beautifully crafted gold-plated eagles head, the sword hilt is traditionally coated in stretched, dyed and age dried ray skin. The scabbard is made of black buffalo rawhide and fitted with gold plated belt mounts.

Commissioned to celebrate 100 years of the Royal Air Force, the 1925 Limited Edition RAF 100 sword is defined by the RAF 100 inscription and associated date. Assembled to meet all M.O.D specifications the RAF 100 sword is approved to be carried on parade by all Commissioned Officers of the Royal Air Force.
