    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

    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!!!!
