English Civil War / Restoration Period Officers’ Walloon Sword. English Walloon Swords were mainly produced from the second to the fourth quarters of the 17th century. The pierced guard plates which are typical of the hilt design were influenced by earlier developments in Europe, which were combined with the features of existing English sword styles, to create this unique form of English hilt. English Walloons provided a stylish alternative to the other sword patterns that were in use throughout the English Civil War period, the Restoration period, and in the battles fought during the Glorious Revolution of 1688 when James II was deposed. Most usually these are cavalry swords mounted with single edged blades. Some English rapiers were also clearly influenced by the Walloon style. This sword is mounted with a backsword blade and its delicate construction indicates that it was made for a military officer. The hilt is made up of slender rounded bars built upon a sturdy quillon block. The cross bar is extended into a rear quillon which terminates in a drooping wristguard with a flat square finial. To the front, the quillon is extended into a knuckle bow, the flat grooved terminal of which is tucked into an aperture located at the front lower part of the pommel. Robust oval ring guards are mounted on each side of the cross bar, each with decorative bisected pairs of square shapes in the outer middle. Each ring is filled with a slightly downwardly convex plate, intricately engraved and pierced with concentric oval designs. The plates are integral in the manufacture of the ring guards rather than of separate manufacture sprung into place in grooves chiselled around the insides of the rings. The sprung plates are a later European development rarely present on English swords of this time. The knucklebow has two subsidiary scrolled bars emanating each side from just below halfway which splay and conjoin with the edges of the ring guards to strengthen the hilt structure. The hilt floor has a raised platform on the inside which supports the grip, and integral rounded langets emanate from the cross guard below on each side of the blade. The stylistic influence of contemporary English “Mortuary” hilts on these features is apparent. The cylindrical pommel has deeply fluted sides with an integral raised button on top and a flared neck beneath. The slightly baluster shaped wooden grip is bound with a strand of twisted brass wire. The single edged blade has a deep shallow fuller running underneath the back edge on both sides for the length of the blade which is double edged near the tip. The overall length of the sword is 38 inches (96.5 cm) and the blade is 32 inches (81.5 cm) long. Overall the sword is in russet, original and uncleaned condition. For further information on English Walloon swords, and to see similar examples, see Stuart C Mowbray, “British Military Swords – Volume One: 1600 to 1660”, Mowbray Publishing, 2013, pages 246 to 254. See also for further discussion, Cyril Mazansky, British Basket Hilted Swords, Boydell Press 2005, Chapter 11, pages 281 to 284. The swords are described as “Hilts based on pierced side rings”.

A fine quality solid silver 2 piece habaki (blade sleeve) expensive to have made. In a 20th century shira saya resting mounts. A nice looking sword”.

VERY RARE ENGLISH IRON HILT INFANTRY OFFICER’S SWORD, LATE 18TH CENTURY. Pattern which later became standardized as the 1796 Infantry Officer's Sword, but used as early as 1775. See Swords and Blades of the American Revolution, Neumann, #160.S. This example with 32 ¾” spadroon blade decorated with Arms of England, crowned GR cipher, trophy of arms and foliage. The back marked Runkel Solingen. J J Runkel imported blades from Germany for hilting in England. In 1786, he submitted 1400 blades to the East India Company for quality testing, indicating that he was well established at that time. This sword is unique in our experience as it has an iron hilt, apparently silvered originally. The details conform to the standard with one piece shell guard (non folding) and foliate decorated pommel. The grip is black reeded wood. Excellent preservation for the period, about 1790, and probably served in the Napoleonic Wars and possibly War 0f 1812.

Japanese Type 95 Middle Pattern WW2 NCO Sword. 1941. #2304002. Japanese early third/middle pattern WWII Type 95 NCO shin gunto produced in early 1941. Prior to the attack on Pearl Harbour in December 1941, the Japanese government ordered that production of swords for the military be increased but that costs be cut and materials such as brass and copper be reserved for other war effort projects such as munitions.This sword has a cast aluminium tsuka (hilt) with a 4mm thick plain iron tsuba (guard). The use of iron for the tsuba, along with the top latch for securing the sword in the scabbard identifies this as being a third, or middle pattern sword dating to early 1941. After mid-1941, the latch mechanism for securing the sword in the scabbard was moved to the side of the hilt.The 67 cm (not including the blade collar) blade is in good condition with some shallow use-related scratches at the tip. The serial number 62233 and a Tokyo First Arsenal stamp are marked above the fuller. These early war production Type 95 Shin Gunto were carried by career soldiers, not conscripts and were considered by many as a primary weapon. The blade retains its fighting edge and has a few small edge nicks.The cast aluminium hilt retains much of its original paint. The hilt is firm on the tang. The scabbard latch is in good condition and works well.The non-matching numbered scabbard is in good condition, retaining over 75% of its original green paint. The scabbard is free from dents. The sword sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard.Japanese WWII swords are amongst the most copied/faked of all swords and prospective buyers should beware.This Type 95 is guaranteed to be genuine and is a good, honest example of a much sought after Japanese NCO’s sword that was carried and used by a career soldier in the Imperial Japanese Army.

Steel ferrule, chequered backstrap and oval pommel cap. Wire-bound shagreen grip. Bullion sword knot. Steel parade scabbard with two hanging rings. All metal parts nickel-plated. Blade 32Â¼ inches, 38Â½ inches overall. The blade is etched on both sides, featuring the royal crown and cypher of George V, the badge of the Irish Guards, the battle honours of the Irish Guards within scrollwork, from Retreat from Mons to Hindenburg Line, the retailer&#acute;s name and badge &#acute;Wilkinson Sword Co Ltd London&#acute; and the owner&#acute;s initials &#acute;H. S. P.&#acute;, indicating Henry Steuart Phillpotts. It has a hexagonal brass proof slug: the hexagonal slug was used from 1905 onwards to denote Wilkinson&#acute;s best quality blades. The spine of the blade is etched with &#acute;Made in England&#acute; and stamped with the serial number &#acute;63059&#acute;, indicating manufacture in 1931. Henry Steuart Phillpotts was born in 1910 in County Carlow, Ireland. His father was Brigadier-General Louis Murray Phillpotts, who served in the Royal Artillery in the Boer War and WW1 until he was killed in action in France in 1916. His mother was Amy Steuart Duckett, from a wealthy family of Anglo-Irish landowners. Henry gained his Army commission as a university candidate in 1930, joining the 2nd Battalion, Irish Guards. He was promoted to Lieutenant in 1933, and was seconded for service on the Staff as an Aide-de-camp in 1938, during which time he was promoted Captain. On the outbreak of war in 1939 he relinquished his staff appointment and returned to his regiment as Adjutant for the 2nd Battalion. He was awarded the Military Cross in December 1940 for bravery under fire. The recommendation made for his MC by Lt-Col. Haydon reads as follows: Captain H.S. Phillpotts was Adjutant to the Battalion throughout the operations at the Hook of Holland on May 13th and 14th, 1940. During the air bombing which took place on the evening of the 14th May this officer was wounded. However, though in considerable pain he neither reported the fact that he had been hit nor did he go to the Regimental Aid Post for treatment because at that time the Medical Officer was already very occupied dealing with the other wounded. It was not until the pallor of his face caused questions to be asked that he admitted he had been hit, and even then it required a direct order before he would go to receive treatment. On the following morning when the decision was taken to evacuate the force at short notice Captain Phillpotts despite the pain and discomfort he was suffering and had suffered through the night volunteered to carry the orders for the move to the forward Companies. He took the quickest routes across completely open ground and would have been at the mercy of and enemy aeroplane that came over. Captain Phillpotts by the courage, endurance and self-sacrifice set the most inspiring example to all ranks and was instrumental in getting very urgent orders to their destination in time for them to be acted upon. His services throughout the operations were invaluable both to his Commanding Officer and to the Battalion. During the war Henry was made a substantive Major. In 1946 he was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. He divorced his wife (married Feb 1940) in 1949, with one daughter from the marriage. After his retirement &#acute;Colonel Phillpotts&#acute; was known locally for his generosity, giving away Harrods hampers to those with whom he stayed. His inherited home in County Carlow, Russelstown Park House, was compulsorily purchased and demolished by the Land Commission in the mid-1950s, prompting him to move to England. He died in Winchester in 1978. The action of the Irish Guards referred to in Henry&#acute;s MC citation was part of the broader Battle of the Netherlands after its invasion by Nazi Germany in May 1940. The 2nd Battalion Irish Guards under Lt-Col. Haydon was sent into Holland on the 12th May, aboard two ferries escorted by HMS Hereward and other destroyers, disembarking at Walcheren. Their mission had been assigned at midnight on the 11th, such short notice that around a quarter of the 2nd Battalion&#acute;s men were still on leave “ a company of 200 Welsh Guards was drafted to replace them. Designated &#acute;Harpoon Force&#acute; this composite unit&#acute;s objective was to secure Walcheren and the route from its seaport to the Hague, creating an evacuation corridor for British diplomats and citizens, valuable material assets, the Dutch Royal Family and Dutch Government ministers. Harpoon Force was ordered to act defensively, not taking part in any fighting unless its objectives were challenged. It was lightly armed, but had artillery support from the docked destroyers and other Royal Navy vessels off the coast. Upon arriving, Haydon learned that the Dutch were still holding the Hague, but Walcheren was under air attack by Stukas and he chose not to risk of trying to force his way to the capital. Trucks arrived from Amsterdam carrying diamonds, and at 12pm on the 13th an armoured bank car brought Queen Wilhelmina to the Hereward. The Dutch government and diplomatic corps then arrived at 6pm. The 2nd Battalion dug in and held position into the next day to allow evacuation of a steady stream of refugees, but came under increasing pressure from the Luftwaffe and was forced to withdraw on HMS Whitshed, at the loss of seven Guardsmen killed and 23 wounded. Only six days later the 2nd Battalion was deployed to Boulogne to cover another British evacuation, where it fought off sustained attacks from the Second Panzer Division. Although Boulogne was lost the battalion&#acute;s efforts significantly delayed the German advance towards Dunkirk. It returned to Europe in the Normandy Campaign in 1944, after which it participated in Operation Market Garden and the Rhineland Campaign, where Guardsman Edward Charlton of the 2nd Battalion earned the last Victoria Cross awarded in the European Theater. The blade is bright with only a few small spots of light patination, not impacting the etching. The nickel plating of the hilt is largely intact but with some surface distortion and minor flaking in high-wear areas. The scabbard has a few small dents. Very little nickel plating remains on the scabbard, but the exposed steel appears to have been polished, with some polishing marks and areas of remaining patination. The wire binding of the grip is tight with no movement, the shagreen of the grip has only light handling wear. The leather washer has been Blancoed for parade. The knot is structurally strong and flexible, with some minor fray to the wires of the acorn.

Pre 1803 Flank Officers Sabre. An unusual pre-1803 Flank Officers sabre with scabbard. The blade is 71cm long with a total length of 82cm. The brass guard and horn grip is in good condition with no chipping, the grip wire is partially intact. There is a small amount of movement in the handle, most likely caused by natural shrinkage in the wooden core of the handleThe leather scabbard is unusual lacking any form of drag at the chape, and pronounced cutouts at the throat for the langets. Possibly for an office serving in India, the design is similar to ones used later by the East India CompanyFollowing the introduction of the 1796 Infantry Officers spadroon many officers serving in the Flank Companies of regiments required something more robust. Often charged with skirmishing close to the enemy lines, these officers required a more suitable weapon, and by 1799 many had adopted the sabre. This also had the advantage of being suspended on slings, and could be hitched up for travel over rough ground more easily than traditional officers sword

Pre WW2 U.S. Army Model 1902 Infantry Officer’s Sword By Allen & Co New York With Etched Blade To U.S Artillery Officer Captain L.C. Baldwin Captured By The Japanese 1942 Died 1945 Island Of Honshu Japan, Scabbard, Leather Transit Cover & Provenance.. Captain Lawrence Chandler Baldwin was the son of a career US Army officer. Born in Tokyo during the Great War, it makes the way in which he died even more tragic. As a boy he met a president. He attended West Point and was commissioned into the Field Artillery and then served under Douglas MacArthur. He graduated West Point 1938, served with the coastal artillery in Corregidor Philippines. Captured may 1942, held at POW camp No.1 on Mindanao. He died march 4th 1945 on the island of Honshu japan. A full history of his captivity and a printed Eulogy given by his father after the Officer’s death and copy images of the Officer in uniform accompany the sword. This eulogy is written by his father, Colonel Karl F Baldwin.
