Sword with leather scabbard, frog and knot.    £465
WILKINSON No.60867. GV cyphers. Initials on blade: H.L. 
Wilkinson register shows that the sword purchased in August 1927 by a "C.S.M. J. Knightley" (no regiment shown).

Further research required to identify "H.L." - commissioned from NCO, around 1927-28?
