This was the choice sword of the Yankee cavalry troops (as well as Confederates) during the "War Between The States". The 1860 Light cavalry saber measures 34" long, and its curving blade is superbly designed for penetration (thrust) & as a slashing weapon. Originally copied from an earlier French issue saber and manufactured in the North and in Europe for the lads in blue. Our excellent reproduction is hand made and ready to use. The guard and pommel are solid brass. A stout steel scabbard completes this legendary sword - one that evokes the unflinching bravery of Antietam, Manasseh, and Gettysburg. This sword is 41" overall. Made by Windlass Steel crafts.
