Looking for a reproduction 1860 light cavalry sabre

Lost my sabre to a round from a Spanish Mauser during the charge up Kettle Hill with Col. Roosevelt.   :o

Atlanta Cutlery might have them.
People like me are the reason people like you have the right to bitch about people like me.

They do... but the Atlanta Cutlery are not the best quality (India)  (unless they are carrying the better ones these days )

Try, Fall Creek Suttlery..he has Ames and the are good quality...
or Museum Replica's also Ames....

Now if you want the Real deal I have two ...an 1857 marked Ames model 1840 Wrist Breaker in Museum very best condition.
and an 1962 marker Emerson & Silver Light cavalry saber in vgood condition....
They are pricy though  :P
when planets align...do the deal !

Captain Bob - I've got one you can have for $40 (don't know the exact model).  We can get together at HOW if that works for you.

I am in the same position as my saber got lost in the brush at Las Guasimas, even though the other Troop Commanders told me to leave it with my saddle and spurs back at Tampa Heights. There's a decent discussion on this topic here: http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/index.php/topic,18605.0.html

I agree with Fall Creek Sutlery.  I have seen his up close  and they are really well done.
