A British Trafalgar Period Silver Mounted Naval Dirk in Scabbard.
A slightly ‘S’ shaped silver coloured crossguard, pommel and feel. Blade 30cm with centre fuller, possibly an older ‘family’ 17th-century one. Very rare form of metal scabbard in the form of a lacquered black leather scabbard with top and bottom silver mounts, and suspension chain with a particularly unusual polish horn plate that slips under belt. Slight wear to black lacquer, very good condition £300-£400
