Product Overview
The 1840 Non-Commissioned Sword is a historically significant American military weapon, carried by U.S. soldiers for over seven decades, spanning the Mexican War, the American Civil War, and the Spanish-American War. Its enduring service history makes it one of the most recognizable and respected non-commissioned officer swords in U.S. military tradition.
The single-edged blade features a broad, well-defined fuller running from the ricasso nearly to the point, providing both strength and balance. Measuring 31¾ inches in length, the blade comes factory sharp, making it suitable for serious collectors, reenactors, or historical displays.
The hilt is crafted entirely from cast brass, offering durability and period-correct appearance. A ribbed grip ensures a secure hold, while kidney-shaped hand guards provide classic styling consistent with mid-19th-century American military swords. The globular pommel with capstan completes the hilt with authentic detailing.
Manufactured by Windlass Steelcrafts, this sword is paired with a steel scabbard, making it a complete and accurate representation of the original service weapon.
Whether added to a military collection, used in reenactment, or displayed as a piece of American history, the 1840 Non-Commissioned Sword stands as a symbol of long-serving military craftsmanship.
