THIS IS AN EARLY CIVIL WAR SABER THAT WAS FOUND IN NORTH GEORGIA YEARS AGO. IT IS IN ORIGINAL TIGHT CONDITION WITH A COUPLE OF TINY NAILS ADDED TO THE GRIP DURING THE PERIOD. THE GRIP HAS SCRIBE MARKS WHICH MAY BE BATTLE SCORES AND THE BLADE IS TARNISHED WITH NO FRACTURES. I HAVE NEVER CLEANED IT TO PRESERVE THE PATINA AND HISTORY. THERE ARE NO MARKS THAT I CAN MAKE OUT AND IT MAY BE A CONFEDERATE IMPORT. GOOD EARLY WAR PERIOD SWORD. MEASURES: 32″ OVERALL, BLADE 27.5″.
