Weapons of the Civil War
All weapons listed on this webpage are strictly manufactured before 1898, and are considered unsafe for actual use. These are antique collectible weapons of the Civil War (most are pre 1865, unless I state otherwise) and actual firing of these weapons is not recommended for any purpose whatsoever! Because these are all "pre 1898" weapons, no licenses are required for ownership, but common sense and good judgment are real good things to have
All items listed are believed to be authentic to the Civil War or as otherwise described.
W0789
Model 1860
Cavalry Saber, Mansfield & Lamb 1864
The model 1860 saber was made slightly lighter than the model 1840
and was the primary saber of the Federal cavalry by the end of the war. Ricasso
is marked "MANSFIELD & LAMB / FORESTDALE RI" and "US / CEW /
1864". Iron scabbard with iron mountings.
The grip is missing leather wrap and wire, leather washer intact, clean blade,
scabbard intact with light rust missing the throat, exceptionally sharp marks,
nice example with desirable war date from one of the scarcer makers.
