First Empire model ship's/boarding saber with 1833 model blade and new scabbard
Rare ship's or boarding saber with a First Empire pattern hilt (a pinhead-sized hole in the shell is noteworthy). The quillon is cut into a palmette, a characteristic of the First Empire.
675 mm curved blade with markings on the spine: "Manuf de Chatellerault...", which remain illegible. Rust and talc on the blade, easily cleaned.
Chatellerault manufactured the blades for the boarding sabers between 1835 and 1861, so the blade is indeed of the 1833 pattern.
It no longer has any visible punch marks and has been thoroughly cleaned; the two regulatory anchors are, however, visible on both sides.
When the ship's saber pattern was changed in 1833, not all the sabers of the earlier pattern were put away! They continued to be used until the stock was exhausted, even if defective blades had to be replaced. This allowed us to find a few sabers modified in this way, which were less expensive than the (very) rare 100% original pieces.
The scabbard is a new one, for use in reenactment.
Michel Petard states in his book "Le sabre d'abordage" (The Boarding Saber) that no scabbard of the Year IX model has survived.
