Model 1850 Union Staff & Field Officer’s Sword

This fine reproduction saber is a faithful copy of ones used. The hand forged blade is British military spec steel that will flex over 20° and return to true. The leather handle is wire wrapped. Befitting their rank, this sword displays a high degree of ornamentation. The brass guard has hand chased foliage and “U.S.” between the branches. The blade is etched with foliage, military trophies, “U.S.”, “E Pluribus Unum” and “Iron Proof.” During the years before the war, many Confederate officers, including General Robert E. Lee carried this sword in the Indian campaigns. Brass pommel, scabbard is blue steel.
