Hilt has the usual brass domed pommel cap and three branch knucklebow with a quillon that has been bent forward toward the blade, which is a usual sign of use. Wood grip is covered in a nice brown leather with a single straight brass wire wrap. Leather shows very light surface wear and the wire is excellent. Hilt is tight to the blade. Brass has a mellow patina.

Iron scabbard is a product of the Ames Manufacturing Company and began life as a Union scabbard. At some point it passed into Confederate hands and had a wide brass throat attached to it. Mounts and rings are iron. The surface has a nice dark patina. There re one or two shallow dents on the lower portion of the scabbard along with some light surface rust and dirt.

Very nice example of a Confederate sabre.  [ad]
