Very good condition, some oxidation spots on the blade, leather of the scabbard with a seam accident and some wormholes, missing calf leather on the handle.

NOTE:
Michel Pétard writes in his book "The History of Hussar Sabres from Louis XIV to the Present Day," Canonnier Editions 2010, "The republican version of the 1777 sabre is distinguished from its direct ancestor by its iron-trimmed scabbard. No significant archives allow us to know its origin, but the comparison of markings on many specimens demonstrates manufacturing ranging from around 1792 to 1798 and predominantly originating from Klingenthal. Additionally, privately requisitioned industry productions were also very present, sometimes using blades forged in Klingenthal. Of course, the large fleur-de-lis engraved on the blade under the monarchy until 1792 gives way to the monogram "Repe" "Franse" engraved on both sides of the blade. The back always featuring ‘KLINGENTHAL’ engraved in bold capitals. Sabre figure 33: Klingenthal stamps between 1793 and 1798. Sabre figure 34: Klingenthal stamps between 1798 and 1802."
