It looks quite beautifully engraved but I can't really read it - could be the unit's name or most likely the maker, since this would've been a prestigious job

Clue: Each regiment that has these has perhaps only one or two in use for ceremonies, although I haven't been able to discover this for sure. If there were more soldiers than that who carried and used them in the past then it would probably always have been just a few
