French Napoleonic 1801 Cuirassier Sword by Windlass Steelcrafts.
Leather-wrapped grip with twisted wire wrap.
The distally tapered blade is over 1/4” thick at the hilt and is double-fullered like the originals.
Brass guard and pommel.
This replica weighs a little over 3 lbs, the substantial mass needed to accomplish a lance type thrusting attack.
The French Model 1801 Cuirassier’s sword is a heavy cavalry saber with a straight blade, as the French favoured the thrust over slashing or cutting.
Despite the waning effectiveness of plate armour against the increasing proficiency of firearms, the French cavalry in Napoleon’s army still wore cuirasses - Medieval style breast and back plates with mixed success.
