First used on both sides of the American Civil War, there were three different versions made, for officers, enlisted men, and ceremonial use. The stainless steel blade of this recreation sword displays a slight upward curve. The brass guard and pommel provide stunning accents to the military blade. The grip is wrapped in black leather then secured with wire wrapping, providing a comfortable hold. The polished steel scabbard has two carrying rings for a secure attachment to your belt or baldric. Whether you are acting at a living history event or you want a classic blade for your sword collection, the 1860 Black Handle Cavalry Saber is a stunning choice.

Really nice sword, but the sheath seems a little cheap because it scrapes a lot when the sword is drawn or sheathed. Feels good in the hand and has a nice weight. Only gripe is that there is a seam on the leather handle right where you grip it, but that’s not a problem if you wear gloves.

Sword has a great feel to it when swinging, and amazing for its price.
