Light cavalry sabre from 1796 with steel scabbard



Cold Steels® 1796 Light Cavalry Sabre is inspired by the iconic swords used by the British and their Prussian allies at the Battle of Waterloo. Some believe its distinctive blade shape was likely derived from the Indian Talwar , and it became so popular that it was used by German cavalry into the early 20th century.



But this sabre is more than just a historically inspired display piece. This is a modern, high-quality sabre that is fully capable of passing the British Proof Test for quality and durability.



The sabre comes with a fully sharpened edge and for the scabbard you can choose between a traditional all-metal version or a wooden version with a leather sheath and steel fittings.



1055 carbon steel

The carbon content and relatively low levels of other materials in this steel make it a very stable material, free of the brittleness inherent in most high carbon steels. This steel is ideal for blades that need to have a high impact resistance and is therefore often used for large fixed knives, machetes and swords.
