Description

Historical background:



The Belgian army was subdivided into six "army divisions" (the equivalent of infantry divisions in other armies), supplemented by a cavalry division. Each division consisted of three mixed brigades, a cavalry regiment, an artillery regiment, and various transport units.





DIMENSIONS:



Total length: 97.2 cm

Length without scabbard: 72.2 cm

Blade length: 60 cm

Hilt length: 12.2 cm

Blade width: 3.39 cm





Item description:



Superb Belgian Civil Guard non-commissioned officer's saber M 1850, copied from the French M 1845 model. Fluted chrome-plated steel hilt. The blade is still beautiful and shiny, with some traces of age, in its original condition. Blade marked: "ACIER EXTRA COUPANT LE FER", "MANUFACTURE D'ÉQUIPEMENTS MILITAIRES AUGUSTE FONSON RUE DES FABRIQUES BRUXELLES". Also marked on the heel: "F.H." A truly unique saber, impossible to find in this condition and so complete. A similar example can be seen in the Royal Army Museum in Brussels, very rare!!!





By acquiring this splendid and rare saber from the Belgian army troops, you will undoubtedly be in possession of a very rare witness to the history of Belgium. You will also be in possession of a beautiful blade forged by the best Belgian gunsmiths of the time, as well as a souvenir of the last Saxe-Coburg and Gotha dynasty. In short, a magnificent and rare piece not to be missed!
