omschrijving | Cutlass- the cutlass belonged to C.P.O. Barnaby (active 1919). The cutlass consists of a brass hilt- which is cast in one piece with the 'stepped' pommel- knuckle-bow and upturned quillon- which has a ball-shaped finial. The grip is grooved. The steel blade is curved- flat-backed- with a narrow fuller running two-thirds of the length of the blade- which has an almost hatchet-shaped point. The black leather scabbard has a top locket and chape. There is a suspended crown and brown leather suspension buckles attached to the top locket of the scabbard. The scabbard slots through the brown leather suspension buckles which bears the inscription 'EDWARD JONES- C & M 1919'- although this is faint. The cutlass was received with other personal effects- which belonged to C.P.O. Barnaby.
