Product description

The 1912 cavalry sabre was the very last sword issued to cavalry officers of the British Army - at a time when mounted attacks were largely obsolete and swords were rarely used as combat weapons. It was considered the finest cavalry sword ever designed and was still in use during World War I. The 1912 model was clearly based on the 1908 model, but was much more elaborately decorated. When first introduced, it was issued to all officers to replace the inconsistent swords they had previously acquired privately. Compared to the standard sword, the grip was more ingeniously designed: while the standard 1908 version issued to enlisted men was equipped with a grip of rubber or bakelite, these materials were replaced in the officers' version with shark leather with inlay of nickel-silver wire. Furthermore, the guard was decorated in the style of 19th-century officers' swords with an etched floral engraving (honeysuckle motif). The 1912 model is still used as a ceremonial sword by British, Australian, and Canadian cavalry units. This beautiful, affordable Deepeeka replica features a straight, single-edged blade of spring steel 9260, which has a fuller running along approximately two-thirds of its length. The grip with a wood core is wrapped in black leather and twisted steel wire. A magnificent sabre for collectors and 20th century reenactment.
