RM1561 Civil War Ames Model 1840 Heavy Cavalry Saber Sword with scabbard. This model saber was called the "wrist breaker” as it is a relatively heavy cavalry saber that was manufactured before, and used extensively throughout, the Civil War. This example is stamped "N.P. AMES CABOTVILLE 1847" on one side of the blade and "US" "N W P." on the reverse side. Very good condition.
