Description: STK: #SWORD-GAPBrought to you by CAMARILLO TRADERS specialists in new, used & antique arms, collectible militaria and rustic ephemera Civil War US Federal M1840 36" Blade P.S. Justice, Philadelphia Heavy Cavalry Saber Sword & Metal Scabbard Manufacturer: P.S. Justice, Philadelphia Model: M1840 Blade Length: 36.00" Serial/Rack #: 44 TEXT GOES HERETEXT GOES HERE --> Offered here is Civil War Model 1840 Cavalry Heavy saber sword and scabbard. It was also known as the "Wrist Breaker" because of the strain on the wrist if not handled properly. There are a few differences between an M1840 and M1860 sword. The M1840 has a .25" wider blade and is 1.5" longer. The M1840 grip is straight sided and the M1860 has a bulge. Lastly, the M1840 wire wrap covers all the exposed leather and on the M1860 it stops short at the forward edge of the pommel. Overall, this sword is in Very Good - Very Good Plus condition, considering its age and history. The pommel and knuckle-bow guard are securely fastened to the hilt. They have scattered impact marks and scrapes. The brass finish has turned a darker gold patina color. The leather grip has pieces missing on the top. The wood grip below is exposed and so is the twine holding it together. The twine has no fraying material. The braided brass chord is securely fastened around the grip but is slightly loose probably because the leather has shrunk with time. There are no broken pieces. The coloring is a darker gold patina color. The blade's spine has nicks and dings. The sides and fullers have light oxidation and discoloration. There are a few nicks and dings on the blade's cutting edge and it appears to have its original factory edge. The tip is intact and comes to a sharp straight point. The remaining finish in the white has started to turn a darker patina color and there is scattered black discoloration. The left ricasso is marked "P.S. JUSTICE / PHILADEPHIA". The back of the guard is marked with a serial (or rack) number "44" within a rectangle. The scabbard is in Good - Very Good condition, considering its age and history. The suspension ring mounts and rings are securely fastened to the body. The rings both rotate and swivel correctly. The throat, body and drag have scattered light impact marks, oxidation and scrapes. There is a repair on the lower end of the scabbard that was well done and does not effect the sword going in and out. We think it was fixed around the same time period because it has tarnished the same color as the rest. The metal has turned a darker patina color. There are no visible markings on the scabbard. This sword and scabbard will be a great addition to your American Civil War era collection, or a sword collection in general.
