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.
W0804 Model 1840
Cavalry Saber, C Hammond
The model 1840 saber was a relatively heavy cavalry saber and was
called the "wrist breaker". Charles Hammond, Philadelphia is a rarely
seen maker. Ricasso is marked "C HAMMOND" Iron scabbard with iron
mountings.
The grip has leather wrap and wire intact, leather washer intact, clean blade,
scabbard intact with rust, there are small holes around the drag, nice example
of an early sword from from one of the rarer makers.
Blade length 35.25 inches
