militaria item Heavy cavalry other ranks belt buckle
- French
These were introduced into the French army under Napoleon in the early 19th century and were worn by the Grenadier a Cheval, the Dragoons of the Guard, the Carabineers , and the Guard Train. This example is from the era of the Third Republic, ie 1871-1914.

militaria item Paris National Guard other ranks belt plate
- French
This is a Napoleonic design which may, indeed, be little different from the early 19th-century original. There was a National Guard in Paris since the days of the Revolution in 1789, when they were commanded by Lafayette. They remained in business right up to 1914 and beyond.

I received the 1859 Enfield bayonet and this one is simply awesome.

You worked your magic again. The knife arrived this afternoon without any problem. [My husband] is quite delighted with it.
