<p>[QUOTE=&quot;True Edge, post: 983496, member: 12261&quot;]So, my girlfriend&#039;s dad purchased an old sword today, with the intent to clean it up and sell it.&nbsp; After checking it out and taking some pics, I&#039;m pretty sure it&#039;s a real antique and not a replica, but I&#039;m not 100% certain, nor am I a good enough judge to know what exact period it&#039;s from, or which branch of the military might have used it.&nbsp; At two feet, eleven inches, I feel it&#039;s not long enough to be a cavalry saber, but otherwise I&#039;m at a loss.&nbsp; Can anybody help me out here?</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/67cae1a6-1fe7-4d40-93a8-bebcd1c1967d/ddh4dc1-7bd00e5d-df6f-4a40-8761-3afd17eaa430.jpg/v1/fill/w_1032,h_774,q_70,strp/untitled_by_kormiakrue_ddh4dc1-pre.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9OTYwIiwicGF0aCI6IlwvZlwvNjdjYWUxYTYtMWZlNy00ZDQwLTkzYTgtYmViY2QxYzE5NjdkXC9kZGg0ZGMxLTdiZDAwZTVkLWRmNmYtNGE0MC04NzYxLTNhZmQxN2VhYTQzMC5qcGciLCJ3aWR0aCI6Ijw9MTI4MCJ9XV0sImF1ZCI6WyJ1cm46c2VydmljZTppbWFnZS5vcGVyYXRpb25zIl19.GklMlwkyyGg6c0-lWzynVS7GcAu-zCTV4kXVUbNwo98" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/67cae1a6-1fe7-4d40-93a8-bebcd1c1967d/ddh4ddy-7a7a995e-0b1b-4363-a035-1c30dd77b48f.jpg/v1/fill/w_1280,h_1707,q_75,strp/untitled_by_kormiakrue_ddh4ddy-fullview.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9MTcwNyIsInBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcLzY3Y2FlMWE2LTFmZTctNGQ0MC05M2E4LWJlYmNkMWMxOTY3ZFwvZGRoNGRkeS03YTdhOTk1ZS0wYjFiLTQzNjMtYTAzNS0xYzMwZGQ3N2I0OGYuanBnIiwid2lkdGgiOiI8PTEyODAifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6aW1hZ2Uub3BlcmF0aW9ucyJdfQ.-yr8hmZOwhQlUMDe398ZE-p95mnCKgOzG-es9BZcAdw" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/67cae1a6-1fe7-4d40-93a8-bebcd1c1967d/ddh4eml-446ddb77-552f-4578-8baa-819cbad58664.jpg/v1/fill/w_774,h_1032,q_70,strp/image0__2__by_kormiakrue_ddh4eml-pre.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9MTcwNyIsInBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcLzY3Y2FlMWE2LTFmZTctNGQ0MC05M2E4LWJlYmNkMWMxOTY3ZFwvZGRoNGVtbC00NDZkZGI3Ny01NTJmLTQ1NzgtOGJhYS04MTljYmFkNTg2NjQuanBnIiwid2lkdGgiOiI8PTEyODAifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6aW1hZ2Uub3BlcmF0aW9ucyJdfQ.xd_M2fdlWbDENrpZo_HgfqN9fxJCV4qENv7ox7hxd80" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/67cae1a6-1fe7-4d40-93a8-bebcd1c1967d/ddh4ekj-9f3646d9-0769-4589-85a0-b4dee9a2a4e0.jpg/v1/fill/w_774,h_1032,q_70,strp/image0__1__by_kormiakrue_ddh4ekj-pre.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9MTcwNyIsInBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcLzY3Y2FlMWE2LTFmZTctNGQ0MC05M2E4LWJlYmNkMWMxOTY3ZFwvZGRoNGVrai05ZjM2NDZkOS0wNzY5LTQ1ODktODVhMC1iNGRlZTlhMmE0ZTAuanBnIiwid2lkdGgiOiI8PTEyODAifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6aW1hZ2Uub3BlcmF0aW9ucyJdfQ.tAdQIAHVuhVopF-0wFVxvgsvrzkecH3SdB_cQPCWaLk" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/67cae1a6-1fe7-4d40-93a8-bebcd1c1967d/ddh4eop-2f4820c8-7578-4084-a25a-dd014310116e.jpg/v1/fill/w_774,h_1032,q_70,strp/image0__3__by_kormiakrue_ddh4eop-pre.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9MTcwNyIsInBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcLzY3Y2FlMWE2LTFmZTctNGQ0MC05M2E4LWJlYmNkMWMxOTY3ZFwvZGRoNGVvcC0yZjQ4MjBjOC03NTc4LTQwODQtYTI1YS1kZDAxNDMxMDExNmUuanBnIiwid2lkdGgiOiI8PTEyODAifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6aW1hZ2Uub3BlcmF0aW9ucyJdfQ.4OX8NYFz0nAgHlzcwiZEB1DP7AZCzy57lkW-ukN5iFo" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
