SCARCE - U.S. MODEL 1860 LIGHT CAVALRY SABER & SCABBARD BY - C. ROBY Medal 1 of ONLY 1A fine representative saber issued to countless Federal cavalrymen during the Late War of the Rebellion. Manufactured by the West Chelmsford, Massachusetts concern of Christopher Roby and Company, this saber was one of over 48,000 edged weapons produced for the U. S. Ordnance Department. Considered a late contract specimen, this seldom seen, 1865 dated M1860 blade presented here is a finely made weapon. As author and sword expert John Thillmann notes
