U.S. MODEL 1855 SABRE BAYONET

Bargain priced at $175.00
CLASSIC CONFEDERATE CAVALRY SABRE
This sword is attic condition with traces of the original arsenal maroon paint on the scabbard.
All the brass parts have a deep age reddish brown patina. Nice uncleaned blade with the typical
unstopped fuller usually found on confederate cavalry sabres. The pommel cap is stamped with
a number 10 followed by either the letter s or the number 2. The grips retain 95% of the original
leather wrap with the single strand copper wire. There has been one small repair to the copper
wire. It has always been a mystery as to the maker of these swords. A large number were
produced as evidenced by the numbers encountered. The blades and scabbards are identical to
the so called Kennansville sabres. The brass guard closely resembles those of Boyle and
Gamble. A truly nice sword. $5000.00
