Civil War Cavalry saber straight with spoon hilt
This is a substantial solid sword. A Civil war straight blade saber with "spoon" style hilt. Well decorated brass fittings. Wire wrap over wood grip. Cast guard. The scabbard is steel. 34 inch blade, 43 inches over all. It has a carbon steel blade. Solid, made by Deepeeka, one of the best known names in reproduction weapons. Head and shoulders better then the cheap Pakistani or Chinese show pieces sold at similar prices. Constructed with a hidden tang, forged (not welded). I consider it strong enough for stage and re-enactor contact but would not recommend it for full contact live steel combat. As with any weapon, the suitability or unsuitability for any use is the responsibility of the user. No use whatsoever is endorsed. Original list of $75. I am clearing some warehouse stock. The sword is new, no problems. Blade is not sharp as shipped but can be sharpened.
