BL3 1840 Heavy ( Wrist Breaker) Saber

$ 695.00

Nice condition 1840 saber known as the wrist breaker because of the weight of the blade. During the 1860's they started manufacturing a lighter and much easer to handle saber for cavalry use. The 1840 saber was a favorite among the Southern Cavalry and I'm sure you've heard this a few hundred times but it was a favorite of Nathan Bedford Forrest. He would sharpen the blade on his heavy so he could do a little more than knock dust of a Yankees uniform. This is untouched and all original and has one killer attic patina.. It has a Maker Mark stamp of F. H. on the blade.
