## Description

Turkey Creek Trading U.S. Model 1860 Light Cavalry War Replica Sword

Review: Formidable and Cheap - Well, first of all, its not historically accurate at all. I have had mine for quite some time now and i have finally come to write a review. It does have a hearty weight and is a bit of a wrist breaker. I bought this as a practice beater and it works great. the brasswork and overall appearance is good looking and the blade (once cleaned and properly shined as it comes with oil on it) is very strong and has withstood impressive amounts of punishment against my other beaters. the edge is not sharp but the steel is fair enough if you want it sharp, mine is further blunted from its factory edge from use. The overall effectiveness in formal styles is good to say the least, its weight in an inexperienced hand would effect one's balance and seem very hard to use. however, on the flip side, its perfect for practicing styles and stances. The weight would also make it perfect as its design was for, calvary drills. I highly recommend this to beginner practicing swordsmen/women and tyro sword collectors. Overall, a very satisfying and good buy that is unbeatable for the price payed.
Review: Value! - Seems to be very solid and the blade is not loose. Up close, minor blemishes and imperfections are seen but that's totally expected for a saber costing around 30 dollars. I have bought a replica sword before that was a little more expensive and a lot worse in quality. The blade was loose and the golden twine around the handle would unravel. This saber is a great replica especially for any non expert like myself who would have a hard time appreciating the difference between this saber and one that would cost a few hundred dollars. This also has a good heavy weight too. Great item!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: i see what looks like to be loops on the sheath. can those be used to hang it on the wall or do i have to buy a seperate wall hanger**
A: Yes, there are metal loops on the sheath. You can use these to hang the scabbard from a sword belt, or just hang it on the wall.

**Q: Who makes this?**
A: I'm sorry I can't.  My husband was the military historian in the family and he died in 2012.  You could try the Rochester Military Historical Society and someone there may be able to help you.

**Q: Can it be used for both left and right hand?**
A: The sword guard is made for right hand.
You probably could hold it in your left, but I doubt it would be comfortable.

**Q: Could this be used as a Champagne Saber?**
A: Blade is not sharp and it’s a little floppy (slightly loose). This is more of a display/decorative blade.
I, personally, would say no... you’d more than likely shatter the bottle if tried.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Sword, but only Okay Replica
*by M***N on April 17, 2014*

I'll be posting a video about this once I get around to it, but to anybody who is buying this sword as just a sword or wall hanger, then you will be pleasantly surprised with the weight and quality for the price. You can even sharpen it for an excellent beater sword. If, however, you are buying this as a replica of a Model 1860 Light Cavalry sword... then look elsewhere for a more exacting replica. Here is why: To begin with, I am a collector of U.S. sabers. I own brands that range in quality from Cold Steel to Windlass, to the less than $100 India made replicas. This particular saber has several design flaws that do not make it a true replica of a light Model 1860. The discrepancies begin with the nut at pommel. The originals did not have a threaded tang, much less a knob nut at the end. The pictures don't show the nut, but trust me, it's there. The reason why this didn't effect my review too much was because many of the less than $100 sabers have the same nut, which I typically remove and then heat the threaded portion and hammer it flat like the originals. Now to my gripe about the grip. The grip has a brass backstrap that travels the length of the handle that is fairly reminiscent of the Napoleonic sabers that the Model 1860 was partially based on. Needless to say, the Model 1860 did not feature a backstrap, nor did the Model 1840. The other part of the handle that shares characteristics with Napoleonic sabers is the contoured grip, which tended to be thinner towards the pommel and thicker towards the guard. The Model 1860 and Model 1840 both had a grip that was more-or-less the same circumference for the entire length. Finally, about the four prong guard that should be a three prong guard... everything (expect for that fourth prong) about this guard screams "Model 1840". The most telling Model 1840 feature is the slight up-sweep of the back quillon. The Model 1860 had a rounder guard with a thickened ridge, whereas this saber has a more oblong guard that lacks a ridge. Like I said above, this sword is a great beater sword, hence the rating. I've had a lot of fun hitting things with it and even used my belt sander to sharpen the blade for some good ole watermelon cutting! The final thought that I will leave you with is that the balance on this blade is pretty far forward of the guard. It has a pretty heavy blade that is more in the weight category of the Model 1840 (although the width of the blade does not match the 1840). If you choose to sharpen it, it will help out the balance a tiny bit since a lot of the edge needs to be ground down.
