British Pattern 1788 Heavy Cavalry Sword
SKU: AH6994The first attempt by the British Army to standardise cavalry swords, introduced in 1788 in two forms — one for light cavalry, one for heavy — a full decade before its far more famous 1796 successor refined the concept.

Sword Hanger, Black Leather with Nickel Hardware
SKU: AH4453BKA sword hanger provides a dedicated, adjustable carrying loop for a scabbarded blade, typically worn attached to a waist belt rather than as a standalone belt itself. This version is worked in black leather with nickel hardware, offering a durable, practical mounting point for a hip-carried sword. Suited to a range of historical impressions calling for a hip-slung blade, from military to civilian dress.

Household Cavalry-Style Cuirass, with Belt
SKU: AH4405Unlike the medieval knight’s breastplate, this cuirass draws on a later tradition: the ceremonial breastplates worn by Britain’s Household Cavalry, adapted after the Battle of Waterloo from historical cuirasses held in the Tower of London.
The Life Guards and the Blues and Royals have worn this polished-plate, brass-trimmed style on ceremonial duty ever since, most visibly at Horse Guards Parade and the Changing of the Guard. This reproduction comes complete with leather backing and a white belt.
Deepeeka’s reproduction recreates that recognisable parade-cavalry silhouette, part of our British heritage range.

Light Cavalry Sword – British Pattern 1821
SKU: AH3215NThe British Pattern 1821 Light Cavalry Sword was the standard sidearm of the British light cavalry — hussars, lancers and light dragoons — through one of the most dramatic periods in British military history. From post-Napoleonic garrison duty through the Indian campaigns and the Crimean War, it was the blade at the hip of the most romantically celebrated soldiers of the Victorian era.

British Pattern 1796 Light Cavalry Sabre
SKU: AH3317One of the most recognisable sabres of the Napoleonic Wars, designed by cavalry officer John Gaspard Le Marchant after he grew frustrated with the clumsy, over-long swords British light cavalry carried into the Low Countries campaign of 1793–95.
-
The gorget began as functional plate armour protecting the throat, but by the 18th century had shrunk into a small, purely decorative metal crescent worn by officers as a badge of rank. No longer offering real protection, this later gorget survived as a visible symbol of military commission, hung from the neck by a ribbon or chain over the coat. This reproduction recreates that ornamental military dress piece, a genuine artefact of how armour components could outlive their protective function to become symbols of status.
-
Pattern 1912 British Cavalry Officer’s Sword
SKU: AH3233The officer’s counterpart to the Pattern 1908 trooper’s sword, sharing the same single-minded thrust-focused design that made the pairing the final and most refined expression of British cavalry swordsmanship.
-
Brown Bess Bayonet
SKU: AH3551A socket bayonet for the Brown Bess, the British Army's standard flintlock musket for well over a century, worth correcting directly here as an 18th century design rather than the 17th century claimed in older listing copy.
-
Enfield Sword Bayonet
SKU: AH3554A 19th century sword bayonet, long enough to double as a shortsword once fixed — a design developed so that riflemen, whose rifles were shorter than the muskets they replaced, could still form square and hold off a cavalry charge.
-

British Martini-Henry Enfield Rifle Sling
SKU: RBA18ENFLD303SLGThis sling recreates the official-issue design carried by British and Commonwealth forces from the late 19th century, when the Martini-Henry entered widespread service, through to the latter part of the Second World War. Built in leather, it remained standard equipment across an unusually long span of British military history before being superseded by webbing slings. This reproduction recreates that long-serving pattern in genuine leather.
-

Pattern 1908 British Cavalry Sword

-
British Royal Cavalry Sword
SKU: AH3215A basket-hilted British cavalry sword from the same post-Napoleonic Wars generation of ‘cut and thrust’ patterns that succeeded the purely cut-focused 1796 sabre, built with both cutting and thrusting capability in mind.
-
A British light cavalry sword reflecting the post-Napoleonic Wars shift toward ‘cut and thrust’ patterns — a deliberate compromise design succeeding the purely cut-focused 1796 sabre once battlefield experience showed the value of a genuine thrusting capability too.
