Product information "US Cavalry Sabre"
The sabre (or saber) is a European backsword with a distinct curvature and a rather large hand guard, covering the knuckles of the hand as well as the thumb and forefinger. The length of sabres varied, but they were always made to be worn in a scabbard hanging from the waist.
The origins of the sabre are somewhat unclear, and it may come from designs such as the falchion or the scimitar. Originally, the sabre was used as a cavalry weapon that gradually came to replace the various straight bladed cutting sword types on the battlefield. As time went on, sabres became insignia of rank in many armies, and dress use of sabres continues to this day in some armed services around the world.
Length 100 cm

Die Waffe kommt ungeschliffen und mit stark eingeölter Scheide und Klinge. Die Scheide muss auch gepflegt werden, da sie sonst Rost ansetzt. Gebrauchstauglich ist der Säbel weniger, da er auch nicht stabil genug für z.B Schnittübungen ist. Deshalb eher ein schönes Dekostück. Was dem Preis auch mehr entspricht.
