Product description
In India sabres were used together with spears and even chain mail until far in the 19th century.
_x000D_
Around this period India was part of the British Empire and the Brits armed locally recruited troops that served the empire. This sabre was used by the British light cavalry.
_x000D_
The blade is obviously made after other British cavalry sabres, but the grip clearly has an Indian character. The sabre has a length of 99 cm and a blade of 84 cm. It weighs 1,3 kg and the blade is razor sharp.

Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.
Please note. After finishing the product yourself, the warranty and return right expire. Celtic WebMerchant is not responsible for the obtained result.
