Weapons of the Civil War
All weapons listed on this webpage are strictly manufactured before 1898, and are considered unsafe for actual use. These are antique collectible weapons of the Civil War (most are pre 1865, unless I state otherwise) and actual firing of these weapons is not recommended for any purpose whatsoever! Because these are all "pre 1898" weapons, no licenses are required for ownership, but common sense and good judgment are real good things to have.
W0690 Model 1860 Cavalry Saber,
Ames 1865
The model 1860 saber was made slightly lighter than the
model 1840 and was the primary saber of the Federal cavalry by the end of the
war. Ricasso is marked "MADE BY / AMES MFG CO / CHICOPEE / MASS"
(banner style), "US / GKC / 1865". Iron scabbard with iron mountings.
Leather wrap and wire original with some wear, blade is clean, leather washer
missing, scabbard missing the throat so fit is loose, scabbard is likely a
replacement.
Blade length 35 inches
