Product description
During the American Civil War (1861–1865), sabres were produced directly on American territory, whilst large numbers were also imported from Europe. As a result, there is considerable variation in the sabres employed by both Union and Confederate soldiers throughout the conflict. This reproduction is based on a popular type of French sabre used on both sides of the war. Both officers and regular soldiers carried this sabre.
The sabre features a peened pommel. The guard and pommel are crafted from gold-coloured brass and bear a light patina layer to achieve an antique effect. The grip is constructed from wood with black leather wrapping and twisted brass wire. The sabre is supplied with a steel scabbard with suspension rings.
