Naxos Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 This sabre is in my family for generations. It looks like a M1811, but the bottom on the sheet is different. the only marking that I can find is the number 19 on the hilt.Thanks, Hardy[attachmentid=30627] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 The drag on the bottom of the scabbard has simply been worn away-- or somebody "neatened it up" by grinding it down from...dragging on the ground.I don't think I've ever seen one with only ONE marking--these old wrist-breakers were STILL being handed out to 3rd line units in WW1-- 100 years of use = they sure were a bargain when they were first ordered!!!!
