I've been on the hunt for a while for a good M1850 Foot Officer's Sword. I've been asked to serve as an officer in one of the reenactment groups I belong to. I really wanted an original sword over a reproduction. Wanted a solid piece with a metal scabbard that could be used in the field yet not so pristine I'd that I'd feel horrible if I dinged it by use and not break the bank either. I wasn't seeing what I wanted on line so I asked @ucvrelics for advice. He said he'd be heading to a few shows and would keep an eye out. Well he did and spotted exactly what I was looking for and picked it up for me and I received it yesterday. He absolutely nailed it, it's exactly what I wanted. I can't thank him enough for his help. It's an imported M1850 made by Wilhelm Clauberg of Solingen, Germany
