Hand forged blades are British military spec steel. This makes for tough blades that will flex over 20° and return to true. Each leather handle is wire wrapped. The labor required to make a good sword is highly skilled, and since labor costs are much less there, we are able to offer these swords at less than half the cost of Spanish versions of these swords! (A) Union Foot Officer’s Sword–when a Yankee infantry officer used his sword to rally his troops, this is what the boys in blue beheld. In fact, this is the sword most carried by Union infantry officers throughout the Civil War. This commendable reproduction has a 34" long, well-tempered blade etched with a “U.S.”, an eagle, and military trophies. The bright brass basket displays a floral design cast into the guard. Solid brass pommel. Steel scabbard has brass fittings. 40" overall.
