This saber was widely
used by the British
and their Prussian allies
under General Blucher
in the Battle of Waterloo.
The blade's profile
was derived from the
ferocious Indian Talwar
and was reviled by the
French who strongly
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 Twentieth
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 your choice of
a wood and leather scabbard
with steel mounts and
fittings or an all metal
scabbard.
