The British Infantry Officer did not carry a regulation infanty sword until 1786. Before this officers were responsible for choosing their own swords. Whilst swords with Lion Head pommels were a popular choice, a little rarer were those with horse head pommels, perhaps alluding to the White Horse of Hannover of the Georgian monarchs.
