Sword Scabbard

Scabbard for Royal Dockyard Battalion sword. The black leather scabbard has one gilt locket with two rings and chape. The sword comes complete with a sword belt of the 1847 pattern: the alteration of the scabbard fittings of this new pattern sword, with only one locket having rings on each side, necessitated an alteration in the slings of the waist belt.
