Cold Steel 1796 Light Cavalry Saber - 88S
88S - 1796 LIGHT CAVALRY SABER
88SS - W/Steel Sheath
This saber was widely used by the British and their Prussian
allies under General Blucher in the Battle of Waterloo. The
blade was derived from the ferocious Indian Talwar and was
reviled by the French who protested its use due to the horribly
destructive wounds it inflicted. In fact, this saber was so
successful as a cutting weapon, that the German Cavalry
continued to use it right up to the beginning of the 20th
century! If you want a combat quality saber that will pass the
British Proof Test and is fully capable of shearing off arms and
even legs with a single blow, this is a must have! It comes fully
sharpened with a wood and leather scabbard with steel
mounts.
The 1796 Light Cavalry Saber comes with your choice of an
all steel scabbard or a wood/leather scabbard. Both versions
feature steel mounts and fittings.
