W. CLAUBERG
SOLINGEN
This indicates that the sword was made in the legendary "City of Blades" in the mountains of Western Germany. Wilhelm Clauberg AG, Waffen- & Stahlwarenfabrik was founded in 1810, and exported large numbers of blades to England and the U.S.A. By 1887 however they had ceased weapon production, and were mainly making razors and steelware.
Both the North and South imported Swords and guns from Europe and European Manufacturers, mostly in Germany, and they did not want the eventual "winning side" to be able to blame them for "supplying the enemy". This is a typical example in much better than average condition.
This sword conforms quite well to the M1840 U.S. Heavy Cavalry pattern, and is approximately 41.50” overall size, 36” blade, 43" in scabbard. It has a brass wire bound leather grip, and a brass three branch hand guard.
It has the correctly wicked heavy curved blade measuring 36". The blade is in wonderful condition with the exception of a small nick or two to the cutting edge. There has been a “U.S 1861” added to the reverse side of the ricasso as well as an additional “U.S” stamp added to the brass hilt. Which is not seen on German imports, leading us to conclude it has been a post war alteration. You will also find a racking number “21” on the brass hilt and “45” on the pommel.
A great example of a Civil War Era M-1840 Wristbreaker Saber from a German maker. Complete with scabbard, this sword is ready to display!
