ËœA FINE NAVAL DIRK, LATE 18TH CENTURY, ALMOST CERTAINLY FOR A MEMBER OF THE EGYPTIAN CLUB with curved polished blade double-edged towards the point, gilt-brass hilt comprising small outer-guard pierced and chiselled with a crocodile, a pair of recurved quillons, faceted back-strap rising to form a maned lionhead pommel, banded ivory grip (age cracks), knuckle-chain (perhaps an early association), in its leather scabbard with brass mounts comprising locket and middle band and chape 31.5 cm; 12 1/2 in blade Two days after the battle of the Nile, on the night of 3rd August 1798, the Captains of the fleet met on board the Orion, and inaugurated the 'Egyptian Club'. A document was then drawn up, and signed by all present, inviting Sir Horatio Nelson to accept the gift of a sword and to have his portrait painted for the club. Nelson's gold sword was ordered through Rundell & Bridge. There was a rumour in London that the eyes of the crocodile were to be of diamonds and the scales of amethysts, emeralds and other precious jewels but this proved unfounded. Nelson's 'Egyptian Club' sword was sold at Christies on 12th July 1895 from the collection of Lord Bridport for £1,080. It was stolen from Greenwich Hospital in 1900 and never recovered. Little more is known of the 'Egyptian Club' who never seem to have met. The promised portrait was never completed although there was a story that a Neapolitan artist was invited to breakfast with the Captains but felt unworthy of the commission. Nelson's own sword was distinguished by an enamel plaque set into each side of the grip, one showing Lord Nelson's arms and that on the reverse allegorical figures representing Britannia and Africa. On the guard was an enamel plaque representing the Battle of the Nile and a list of the captains who served: Captain Sir F. Berry, Vanguard; Captain T. Trowbridge, Cullodon; Captain R.W. Miller, Theseus; Captain A.J. Ball, Alexander; Captain Thomas Lewis, Minotaur; Captain Sir T.B. Thompson; Leander; Captain B. Hallowel, Swiftsure; Captain David Gould, Audacious; Captain John Peyton, Defence; Captain S. Hood, Zealous; Captain James Saumarez, Orion; Captain Thomas Foley, Goliath; Captain G.B. Westcott; Majestic; Captain H.D.E. Darby, Bellerophon; Captain S.M. Hardy, Mutine. Captain Westcott had been killed at the action. The present dirk forms part of a very small group of dirks that were almost certainly made for members of the Egyptian club. Another, formerly in the collection of Nelson's prize agent, Alexander Davison, was sold Sotheby's, London, 21st October 2001, lot 14 and another was sold in these rooms, 4 December 2013, lot 73.
