Prince of Wales’s 30th Light Dragoons Officer's Sabre

Our British Light Dragoons Sabre is a replica of the swords carried by the Prince of Wales’s 30^th Light Dragoon Regiments from 1794-1796. A similar sword was carried by the Princes of Wales’s 10^th Light Dragoon Regiments (still in existence as the 10^th Royal Hussars). The 30^th Light Dragoons Regiment only existed for a couple of years, making this sword both rare and collectable. The National Army Museum in London has one of the few surviving originals in its collection.

This officer’s sabre distinguishes itself from a standard troopers sabre in that it features an etched guard. The engraving on the right side reads ‘’OR Princess of Wales’s Light Dragoons XXX’’.  The left side features the cypher of the Princes of Wales with the motto ‘’Ich Dien’’ - meaning ‘’I serve’’.

Our British Light Dragoons Sabre features a forged and tempered, AISI 1065 High Carbon Steel blade. The guard and pommel are steel and side either side of a varnished wooden grip. The grip is sandwiched over the tang and riveted in place. The wooden scabbard is covered with black leather and reinforced with extensive steel hilt fittings.
