This saber has no visible markings, and the maker of these swords remains unknown. The rougher quality of the casting and finishing is typical of Confederate made swords. 35 1/2 inch curved blade with broad, unstopped fullers. The overall length is 41 inches like the U.S. Model 1860. The hilt is brass with a brown leather and single strand brass wire wrapped wood grip shaped more like the Model 1840's pattern but a Model 1860 style pommel. The scabbard is iron with an overlapping seam along the reverse and undecorated brass hardware.
