Product Overview
The Nashville Plow Works Cavalry Saber is a replica of a Civil War-era cavalry sword, crafted with a 1065 high-carbon steel blade and full tang construction for durability. The black leather grip is tightly wrapped with twisted brass wire, providing a traditional appearance and secure hold. A cast brass guard complements the sword's classic military styling, while the blackened steel scabbard is fitted with brass fixtures to complete the authentic presentation.
During the American Civil War, cavalry sabers were carried by mounted soldiers and were designed for use on horseback. Their curved blades made them well suited for cavalry service, and they became one of the most recognizable military swords of the period. This replica reflects the traditional design features associated with Civil War cavalry sabers while faithfully incorporating the materials and construction detailed by the manufacturer.
Historically, cavalry sabers were issued to mounted troops and formed an important part of their military equipment. Today, the Nashville Plow Works Cavalry Saber is well suited for Civil War collectors, historical reenactments, museums, military displays, educational exhibits, and anyone seeking an authentic-style one-handed cavalry sword for display or collection.
