Napoleon’s cavalry was the bane of the European battlefield. His troops were equipped with first rate blades, manufactured in a state-of-the-art factory dedicated to producing the finest edged weapons of the day. Our 1813 Napoleon Saber takes inspiration from these exceptional swords, with an elegantly curved 1055 Carbon Steel blade and long, wide fuller, culminating in a very sharp, but practical point. The grip is equally well made. It’s wrapped in black leather and strongly protected by a stout, brass three bar hilt. The whole package comes with a heavy duty hand polished steel scabbard with dual rings for attachment to a baldric or sword belt. Details: WEIGHT 37.7 oz. THICKNESS 5/16" BLADE LENGTH 33 3/4" HANDLE 5 1/4" STEEL / MATERIAL 1055 Carbon OVERALL 39" ADDITIONAL FEATURE Steel Scabbard

Renaissance wax polish was originally formulated in the British Museum research laboratories in the early 1950's, in response to a discussion amongst museum technicians at an international conference on fine-art conservation. In accelerated ageing tests, the British Museum scientist found that all current commercial waxes based on the usual natural waxes (beeswax and carnauba wax) contained acids which, in time, could spoil original finishes on national historic collections of furniture. He rejected them all and investigated the new so-called 'fossil' or microcrystalline waxes being refined out of crude oil. With their distinct characteristics depending on their geographical origins, the new 'man-made' waxes could be accurately blended to meet the needs of many industries, from cosmetics and pharmaceuticals to heavy engineering. Thus, the waxes combined Nature's best qualities with the advantages of modern technology. The blend which emerged from that research was 'designed' for long term protection of all classes of museum exhibits. At last museum technicians and others caring for important collections could use wax polish that neither caused future conservation problems nor detracted from the intrinsic values of their treasures. For over forty years, Renaissance Wax has been the No. 1 choice of museums for the preservation of precious items including swords and other edged weapons. Professional conservators throughout the world depend on Renaissance Wax to protect their collections. Properly applied, a little goes a long way. Made by Hanwei.

This Roman bandolier made of genuine leather is the ancient equivalent of a sword belt. It is worn across the shoulder and runs from both sides in two different length straps. These four loops are mounted on four metal rings with which a Roman Gladius sword scabbard is traditionally featured. In this way the legionnaires sword is carried vertically and rigid on the side. The loops of the brown Bandelier are closed with special screws, so-called book screws. Use this fine quality, leather baldric to complete many of your period outfits.
