Napoleonic sabres and swords
Under this heading you can find the Napoleonic soldier's basic weapons such as the Infantry Sabre Briquet or the Cutlass Sabre, but also some very fine weapons outstandingly replicated down to the markings matching exactly those of that time.
See our hussar sabres, all our sabres with blue and gold blades as our sabre for officier subalterne de chasseur a cheval de la garde.
We make our copies using a hugh documentation, but also genuine pieces from our personal but also from private collections, from which we make moulds.
Caution, most of our sabres are not made for fencing, when it is possible we indicate it clearly.
Our swordknots are functional, you can adjust them to your wrists, we make them in our atelier in France.

Sabre for officer, revolution

La garde est un modèle comme on en trouve sur les sabres de mineurs, mais sans branches de garde, commes ur le ssabres de hussard.
