This is an interest in example of this sword that was given to infantry sergeants when serving in the field. The sword has a steel guard, and an ebony engraved grip, as is usual for this model. It was used exclusively during the Seven Year’s War.
The sword was made by Giverne, cutler to the two companies of the king’s musketeers, in Paris. There is a possibility that this sword was then carried by a sergeant of the musketeer, or another regiment of the Royal Household.
