Ethnographic Arms & Armour - View Single Post - 1796 LCS - Early Woolley Blade with Later WDD Scabbard?

I was going back through some shared pictures from 2004. The pages were written by a Philip Lankester, Weapons Department, Royal Armouries 2004

In those brief pages, he describes the Woolley/Deakin association and the business agreement that Deakin's partnership was to continue with Wooley's estate. The first ordnance order was for hangers in 1797, albeit we know Wooley on his own predates that and Deakin starts with him in 1790.

I swore not to share the four pages and it does not define the timeline of the sword presented here.
