The leather handle is wire wrapped. The curving blade is superbly designed for penetration (thrust) and as a slashing weapon. Originally copied from an earlier French issue saber and manufactured in the North and in Europe for the lads in blue. Our excellent reproduction is hand-made and ready for use. A stout steel scabbard completes this legendary sword. It evokes the unflinching bravery of Antietam, Manassas, Gettysburg. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts and comes factory sharp. Review: best quality repo 1860 saber that I have seen - My father has a replica saber similar to this, and I always wanted my own. When I was shopping for a sword for opening champagne bottles for a party, I saw this sword. Instead of buying a cheap $39 saber made in a third-world country, I bought this one. It is a magnificent and well made sword. I suspect that it is better quality than the originals. I used it to open one bottle of champagne as a test, and it performed this task flawlessly. However, I cringed at the idea of using this beautiful sword to open more champagne bottles, so I put this piece away, and ordered a cheap sword for the purpose of opening bottles! If you are in the market for a great cavalry saber, and are considering cheaper alternatives, I would urge anyone to spend a little more and buy this quality saber - I think that you will be glad that you did. Review: NOT AS ADVERTISED - This is NOT the Windlass Cavalry saber that is advertised by Link Sky on desertcart. In no way is it even close. What I received was marked on the box with the item #902931-BK. I looked up this number on google and it shows up as a very cheaply made sword from India. One that is valued at half the cost advertised for the one I was supposed to get. In the attached photos you can see that there is no markings on the sword like the Windlass, just stamp/engraved INDIA. The leather piece between the handle and blade was torn as well. The handle is cheaply wrapped and the leather on the handle doesn't go all the way around. I reached out to them with multiple questions and asking just could I get what I paid for... wasn't worried about refund, just wanted the right sword. No response at the time of this review. Buyer be wary. This is NOT the Windlass, Atlanta Cutlery Saber advertised. ## Features - Authentic 1860 Light Cavalry Union saber replica with solid brass guard and pommel, meticulously crafted to honor Civil War era mounted troops and battlefield heritage. - Hand-forged British military spec steel blade delivers superior flexibility, able to bend and return true, engineered for both slashing and thrusting applications. - Comfortable wood handle wrapped in premium leather and brass wire for secure grip, combining classic aesthetics with functional control in display or handling. - Comes complete with sturdy steel scabbard featuring hanging rings, perfect for historical displays, reenactments, collections, decor, or commemorative gifting. - Exceptional quality and historic design celebrate legendary battles like Antietam, Manassas, and Gettysburg, making this saber a standout collectible piece. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000PZL1LM | | Best Sellers Rank | #451,837 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #861 in Martial Arts Swords | | Blade Length | 35 Inches | | Blade Material | Alloy Steel | | Blade Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Brand | Windlass | | Brand Name | Windlass | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 28 Reviews | | Hand Orientation | Left | | Handle Material | Wood | | Item Dimensions L x W | 41"L x 1.13"W | | Item Weight | 2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Windlass | | Product Style | Modern | | Style | Modern | | UPC | 788536277973 802705500522 711033085826 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Windlass - **Blade Length:** 35 Inches - **Handle Material:** Wood - **Blade Material:** Alloy Steel - **Style:** Modern ## Images ![1860 Light Cavalry Union Saber – Solid Brass Guard & Pommel, Leather-Wrapped Wood Handle, British Steel Blade, Steel Scabbard Historic Replica - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51A5FSfoE6L.jpg) ![1860 Light Cavalry Union Saber – Solid Brass Guard & Pommel, Leather-Wrapped Wood Handle, British Steel Blade, Steel Scabbard Historic Replica - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61eo7Q14SuL.jpg) ![1860 Light Cavalry Union Saber – Solid Brass Guard & Pommel, Leather-Wrapped Wood Handle, British Steel Blade, Steel Scabbard Historic Replica - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WTnbZxeFL.jpg) ![1860 Light Cavalry Union Saber – Solid Brass Guard & Pommel, Leather-Wrapped Wood Handle, British Steel Blade, Steel Scabbard Historic Replica - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5149ISCxTrL.jpg) ![1860 Light Cavalry Union Saber – Solid Brass Guard & Pommel, Leather-Wrapped Wood Handle, British Steel Blade, Steel Scabbard Historic Replica - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61h2mZxV4tL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ best quality repo 1860 saber that I have seen *by P***T on January 18, 2019* My father has a replica saber similar to this, and I always wanted my own.

I know it. Don't even think of that cheap imitation knock off because this is the real deal. This sword has it all. It's durable, made with quality materials and will hold up for you when you have to charge up the stairs while pretending to be Teddy Roosevelt. It's bully. Just bully. Now if you'll excuse me I have important work to complete in Panama. ## Frequently Bought Together - 1860 Light Cavalry Union Saber Solid Brass Guard Pommel Wooden Handle Wrapped with Leather Brass Wire Steel Scabbard - Cold Steel English Back Sword, 32", Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.dk/products/9723373-1860-light-cavalry-union-saber-solid-brass-guard-and-pommel](https://www.desertcart.dk/products/9723373-1860-light-cavalry-union-saber-solid-brass-guard-and-pommel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Denmark* *Store origin: DK* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
