1796 Light Cavalry Saber 88SS
1796 Light Cavalry Saber Steel Scabbard
Ref: 88SS
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 steel scabbard with steel mounts and fittings.
Specifications:
Weight: 34.2 oz.
Blade Thickness: 5/16"
Blade Length: 33"
Handle: 4 3/4" long.
Steel: 1050
Overall Length: 37 3/4"
