French Grenadier Infantry Sword

Sabers have been favored the world over, for hundreds of years, as military swords, and this French Grenadier Infantry Sword reaches back into the 1700s, serving well as a symbol of office and rank, as well as a battlefield companion and side-arm. Similar in overall style to the classic officers saber, this sword is a bit smaller, serving more as a side-arm, rather than a primary weapon. The sword possesses a saber-like design that features a curved, single-edged blade with a fuller down its spine. The grip is cast entirely in brass metal, featuring D-guard for defense of the hand, as well as shaping and ridging to ensure that the hand fits comfortably on the grip. Included with the sword is a matched scabbard, made from wood and wrapped in leather, as well as fitted with brass-metal adornments on the chape and throat. Worn at the hip, this French Grenadier Infantry Sword is a handy little hanger, similar to the cutlasses of old, one that served not only as a soldiers badge of office, but also as a side-arm and weapon, for when the enemies might have overrun his position.
