These swords were used from the American Civil War until the end of the Indian Wars. They are sometimes known as the M1862 swords because that is when the first 800 were issued. It replaced the heavier M1840 heavy Cavalry saber. Approximately 300,000 swords were manufactured for the Civil War. Several manufactures produced them like Ames, Roby, Tiffany & Co., Glaze, Justice and Emerson & Silver. Overall, this sword is in Good - Very Good condition, considering its age and history. The pommel and knuckle-bow guard are securely fastened to the hilt. There is a very light wiggle. They have scattered impact marks, scrapes and discoloration. The brass finish has turned a darker gold patina color. The leather grip has no rips or tears, but part of it has worn off and showing the wood below near the pommel and a couple other areas. There are some light scrapes and finish loss. The brass braided chord is securely fastened around the grip with no fraying material. Some of them move slightly, but we think it is because the leather is old and has started to shrink with time. The coloring is a darker gold patina color. The blade has a slight bend to it that is barely noticeable unless you hold it up to a light. The bend is approximately 8"-10" from the tip. The blade's spine, sides and fullers have light erosion, oxidation and discoloration. There are a couple light nicks and dings on the blade's cutting edge and it appears to have its original factory edge. The tip is intact and comes to a sharp straight point. The remaining finish in the white has started to turn a darker patina color and there is scattered black discoloration. The left side rear of the knuckle bow guard is marked "47". There are no other visible markings. The scabbard is in Fair - Good Plus condition, considering its age and history. The suspension ring mounts and rings are securely fastened to the body. They both rotate and swivel correctly. The throat, body and drag have scattered light erosion, impact marks, oxidation and scrapes. Most of the original finish has worn off and the metal has turned a darker gray patina color. There are no visible markings on the scabbard.
