Early Cavalry Sword

Looking for

Early cavalry sword, mount and blade, Greek saber, true swords?

35 Inch Cavalry Saber/iron Sheath

Design

A early cavalry sword replica masterfully recreated in stainless steel with a handle of brass and black leather. The sheath is heavy iron, and has attached rings for hanging. Sword: 43 1/8" long. Sheath: 36 3/4" long. Technically the 1796 heavy cavalry sword was a backsword, that is a sword with a straight blade with one cutting edge and the opposite edge of the blade (the "back") thickened for most of its length to give added strength. The blade was 35 inches (890 mm) in length, with a single broad fuller each side; the hilt combined a pierced disc guard and single knucklebow. The grip was of ribbed wood, or wood bound with cord to resemble the same, and covered in leather. The iron backpiece of the grip had ears which were riveted through the tang of the blade to give the hilt and blade a very secure connection. The early cavalry sword was often modified by its users. The point was originally a 'hatchet point', a curved diagonal front edge similar to that of the Japanese katana, but most were altered to a symmetrical 'spear point', more common at the time, or alternatively made more acute whilst retaining the asymmetry of the tip. This was done in order to improve the early cavalry sword's ability to thrust. The langets were often removed and the left side of the guard ground away so as to reduce wear to uniforms. This would also have made it more comfortable to wear, especially on horseback.[3]

Officers carried a service sword with a blade of identical general form to that detailed above, although many bore etched, or blued and gilt, decoration. However the guard was entirely different to the Trooper's pattern, being of bowl form, and incorporating an elaborate pierced honeysuckle design with prominent rear quillon.[4] Variant sword types with a hilt similar to that of the officers' pattern, but in brass with a brass scabbard (for the Life Guards) or steel with a steel scabbard (for the Horse Guards), exist and are believed to have been issued to the other ranks of the Household regiments for use when on home (ceremonial) service.[5] The dress sword for Heavy Cavalry officers was a much smaller and lighter weapon, having a knucklebow, ovoid pommel and boat-shell guard in gilt (gold-plated) brass or gunmetal (a form of bronze). The blade was much shorter and narrower than the service sword's, and usually double edged with a short narrow central fuller each side.

Use

The sword was a dedicated cutting weapon with a broad heavy blade and was renowned as being completely unfit for delicate swordsmanship. This was also the foundation for respect it gained from those who appreciated it; most cavalry troopers used the blades like bludgeons and the guards as knuckle dusters (as Le Marchant observed) and the 1796 was significantly more adept at this than most other swords.

A well-known description of the brutal power of the weapon was made by Sgt. Charles Ewart, 2nd Dragoons (Scots Greys) concerning how he captured an Imperial Eagle at Waterloo:
