Original Civil War German Import Clemen & Jung M1840 "Old Wristbreaker" Cavalry Sword and Scabbard. The guard and pommel have a beautiful patina and has the original wrap and wire intact. The blade is full length with a nice point and was lightly sharpened long ago. Larry Hicklen always adds that these were the favorite sword of Nathan Bedford Forrest Cavalry soldiers. Has the C & J maker mark at the ricasso of one side of the blade. The scabbard is complete with the throat and both mounting rings but has an old coat of black paint. A great affordable Civil War Relic that will display amazing on your wall or relic room. Please see all photos.
