Hi Rob,

A fine example just as Luc sayed of a Brtish made, most likely by Gaunt. Therse badge with two small blades were used for on the service dress. The badge with a slider were used for the headdress. Hopes this will help you.

Thanks forum members for your thoughts on this badge, it certainly is in excellent condition and I was lucky to acquire it locally.
