The 1845 Pattern British Infantry Officer's Sword is a modified version of the 1822 pattern sword, the basic difference being a new style of blade. This sword saw action in many throughout the great period of Victorian military campaigns – the Second Sikh War, the Crimea, the Indian Mutiny, the Maori Wars, the Ashanti Expedition, the Zulu War, the Second Afghan War and the Egyptian and Sudan Campaigns of 1882-5. This sword was not replaced in the British Army until 1897.

Our British Infantry Officer's Sword features a tempered AISI 1065 high carbon steel blade with etched decoration featuring a “VR” cypher. The brass hilt also features a “VR” cartouche and a wood, black leather wrapped grip with brass wire overlay. The scabbard is made from steel and features 2 integrated suspension rings.
