A CASED 200TH ANNIVERSARY PONIARD, no visible serial number,
manufactured in 1972, with 10 3/4in. stiletto blade, oned side etched with scrolls and arabesques surrounding a panel marked '1772-1972', maker's details etched at forte, cast gilded cross-guard with drum quillions, smooth polished ivorine grip and gilded tear-drop pommel, in its fitted wood case lined in burgundy velvet, the outer lid bearing a plaque marked 'PRESENTED TO E.R. CHILTON BY WILKINSON SWORD LTD ON THE OCCASION OF THE COMPANY'S BI-CENTENARY 1972', complete with its black leather scabbard with gilt fittings.
