This is a very nice WWI production Model 1913 Cavalry Saber. Unlike most we have seen, it was not made by Springfield Armory, but instead by private contractor Landers, Frary \u0026amp; Clark (L.F. \u0026amp; C.) of New Britain, CT., who also made the 1917 and Mark 1 pattern \"Trench\" knuckle knives.

Minor pitting but no other major corrosion, just the usual light staining from age. Canvas on the scabbard is intact with staining from age and was clear coated at some point, giving it a very solid feel. The heavy steel guard is in great shape, as is the grip, which shows only light dents and a few paint marks. The entire sword has a lovely patina that is impossible to replicate. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example comes with an original 1918-dated U.S. fencing glove manufactured by Stall \u0026amp; Dean.
