1896 pattern Edwardian Heavy Cavalry Officers sword made by Pillin and sold by Hamburger Rogers & Co. Most probably made between 1901-1910. According to Matt, Hamburger were the official outfitters to the Horseguards and therefore favored by lots of other heavy cavalry officers. It’s not sharpened.

It's a really nice sword in good condition and I think that the pictures talk for themselves. The sword is firm in the handle and sits very firmly in the scabbard.
I sent pictures of the sword to Robert at The Sword Pattern and he valued it to about $900-1000
The price for my Brothers is $850/£650/750 Euro or best offer including shipping the EU/US. Payment by PayPal as a friend and family option.
Why do I sell? Well... someone dropped the name Mateusz Sulowski to me and I was lost.
