Product description

The French military based this sword on the famous and effective Roman Gladius. Originally issued in 1816, the solid bronze grip featured a pattern resembling fish scales. When updated and reissued as the Model 1831, the grip was redesigned with a ribbed pattern. Whilst it could be employed as a combat weapon in an emergency, it was primarily utilised as a machete to clear fields for guns. Due to its usefulness as a versatile tool, it was nicknamed "coupe-chou" (which roughly translates to "cabbage cutter").

The Model 1831 remained in use until approximately 1870, and the design was adapted by the United States to create the Model 1832 Foot Artillery Sword. This faithful replica is crafted just as the originals were, with a solid bronze grip and a bronze-studded scabbard. Includes belt holder. Comes with a sharpened edge.
