88NS - 1830 Napoleon Sabre
Napoleon's cavalry was the bane of the European battlefield. While his
horses were second string, his swords were absolutely first rate. They
were manufactured in a state of the art factory dedicated to producing
the finest edged weapons of the day. The medium weight saber we
offer is a cavalry trooper's chosen weapon. It posses excellent cutting
and slashing capability and still remains useful for a thrust. In fact, it
was so popular that it remained in use long after Napoleon's star had
fallen and was wielded by both sides in our own Civil War. In its
general overall appearance, it very closely resembles the United
States 1860 Light Cavalry Saber. However, this design is slightly
different and makes for a far more effective and durable weapon. The
thick, moderately curved blade is forged out of 1050 Carbon steel and
features a long, wide fuller and a very sharp, practical point. The grip of
the 1830 Napoleon Saber is equally well made. It is wrapped in black
leather and strongly protected by a stout, brass three bar hilt. The
whole package comes with a heavy duty polished steel scabbard with
dual rings so it can be easily attached to your baldric or sword belt.
