Stirrup hilted sword
The hilt consists of a gilt stirrup pierced with a slit near the pommel with an upturned quillon with disc terminal. A langet is fitted each side and decorated with a plain border enclosing a frosted ground on which is a foul anchor. The lion's-head pommel and back-piece has a mane extending one-third of the way up to the small decorated ferrule. This sword is of the pattern introduced in 1805. Its white grip indicates that it was appropriate to an officer above the rank of lieutenant.
