Description
This modification allowed the civilian saber to avoid snags and be worn much closer to the body on the lighter belts and baldrics favored for civilian and military dress attire. It turned out to be a very effective weapon as well. Worn for self-defense, or as a sign of authority, it shortly became a common military dress accessory, even to this day. Now Cold Steel would like to offer you our interpretation of the civilian or military dress saber. The hilt features a highly detailed British lion motif and comes complete with a matching folding guard that locks to the scabbard. For contrast, the grip is made of rich black leather and bound in highly polished brass wire. Complementing the hilt is an equally rich yet sturdy scabbard. Made of thick black leather and heavily reinforced with a polished brass chape, throat, and hanging rings, it’s elegant enough for the most formal occasions yet stout enough to endure hard wear and last for generations. Name: Left Handed Civilian Saber Blade Length: 32″ Overall Length: 36″ Steel: 1055 Carbon Weight: 24.8 oz Handle: 4″ Scabbard: Leather Scabbard With Brass Fittings
