Model 1818 Dutch Infantry Short Sword W Rare Marks & Scabbard Rare Short Sword

Description: Model 1818 Dutch Infantry Short Sword W Rare Marks & Scabbard Rare Short Sword. This is a rare original Model 1818 dutch infantry short sword. It is a clone of the french XI infantry briquet sword. It is one of the rarest clones and is extremely hard to find in any condtion. The blade itself and the handle are both marked! The blade has evidence of previous rust on the tip and on one spot on the blade. At some point someone put a lot of work into cleaning it up and making it a presentable condition. For a collector of briquets and short swords this is one missing from most collection. I will add some info once posted about the marks on sword. Scabbard is the all leather original but is extremely worn and broke at the bottom as you can see. Very few of these original leather scabbards have survived in any condition. Blade is extremely tight no issues with being loose like most examples seem to have. The guard, in typical briquet style, is a one piece brass casting, with 39 ribs, and one steelrivet. It is stamped at the base of the blade with the crown over M makers mark or inspector mark i am not compeletly sure. It also is marked "P" 138 and 1854 which is most likely the date of production. This is fairly late as i believe these were removed from service by the late 1850s or early 1860s. Overall a neat and well marked example. Overall the pitting on the tip is present and it most likely was dipped or heavily restored to get ir back down to base metal. It appears to have been stored in a shed basement or attic for a very long time. View closely at the condition of the sword. It definalty has a near be there feel to it! Scabbard also has unit marks on it but they are very hard to make out. I can provide more images of the sword or the scabbard upon request! Thanks for looking.. A little update! I have been contacted by someone saying this very likely is an M1819 Dutch short sword! Still very close and both are verydesirable but the 18 is even harder to find then then 19! Mostlikely this is a 19 so take that into consideration when buying if it matters at all to you!Thanks
