Description
This Musketeer sword is a recreation of the blades carried by the Musketeers after their 1814 reformation. The spine of the blade bears the dated 1814 signature of the Klingenthal manufactory – the favored swordmaker of France during both the Monarchy and the Napoleonic Empire. The base of the blade is stamped with period production and inspection markings. The unsharpened blade is crafted from tempered high carbon steel and the elaborate hilt is of cast brass with a blackened cross design on the swept hilt guard. The grip is covered in tight black leather and is overlaid with spiralled brass wire. The scabbard is of steel with two steel hanging rings.
