This P1853 shows Unmarked- Historical Manufacturing Data Below Some British Pattern 1853 cavalry swords are unmarked because, during the production period, it was not a standard practice to mark every sword with the manufacturer’s details, especially for swords intended for large military contracts; this was often due to cost-saving measures and the assumption that the military would be able to identify the source through procurement records. Key points to consider: THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF AN UNMARKED P1853 BRITISH ENLISTED CAVALRY/DRAGOON’S SWORD- I AM ABLE TO SEE PARTIAL MARKINGS- THE P-1853 WAS INITIALLY MADE COMPLETELY IN ENGLAND. LATER- DURING AND AFTER THE CRIMEAN WAR- THE BRITISH WAR DEPARTMENT ALSO CONTRACTED THESE SWORDS OUT TO MANUFACTURERS IN SOLINGEN, GERMANY. UNMARKED EXAMPLES ARE COMMON – I CAN DISCERN PARTIAL MARKING ON THE BLADE- YOU CAN SEE THESE IN CLOSE UP PHOTOGRAPHS- THESE SWORDS WERE ALSO USED BY THE CONFEDERACY VIA BLOCKADE RUNNERS- AND BY CANADIAN CAVALRY/DRAGOON UNITS OF THE PERIOD (A VERY SMALL MILITARY). THIS SWORD I ACQUIRED IN SOUTHEASTERN MICHIGAN- CLOSE TO THE CANADIAN BORDER- YET ALSO- FROM AN AREA WHERE THE MAJORITY OF THE MICHIGAN CAVALRY, INFANTRY & ARTILLERY UNITS WERE RAISED FROM IN THE U.S. CIVIL WAR. The Pattern 1853 British dragoon’s sword was a cavalry trooper’s sword that was issued to both light and heavy cavalry regiments during the Crimean War: The sword was introduced during the Crimean War and was used at the Battle of Balaclava. Some say that up to half of the cavalry soldiers who fought in the war carried the 1853 pattern sword. However, the sword was criticized during the war, in part because regiments would bend the blades, which weakened them. While the quantities of Enfield rifles and muskets imported by the South from Great Britain are fairly well documented, and reasonable estimates as to their numbers can be made, the quantities of British P-1853 Cavalry Sabers imported from England to the south are much more difficult to assess. The Pattern 1853 Cavalry Saber was an iron mounted, straight bladed saber with a spear point, flat back and a single fuller. The blades were nominally 34 “in length, although some minor variation of about ““to ““+/- have been noted. The guard was a 3-branch, wrought iron affair, with a forward-swept iron quillon topping the guard, and an iron pommel cap. The grip scales were a pair of laminated, pressed leather “slabs”, that were roll-embossed with a checkered pattern and pinned to the tang of the blade, which was secured to the pommel cap by peening. The grip scales were very similar to those found on the English saber and cutlass bayonets of the same period. A search of the McRae Papers sheds some light on the Confederate purchases of edged weapons, but not all entries provide any more information than “swords”, and of course these could be other patterns than the P-1853 Cavalry Saber. · Blade: AISI 1065 high carbon steel, slightly curved, spear point, long false edge, and fuller · Guard: Steel with three bars · Grip: Diamond Pattern Checkered leather – MULTIPLE LAYERED- EXCELLENT CONDITION- · Scabbard: Steel with two suspension rings and an asymmetrical shoe · Overall length: 41.75 INCHES · Blade length: 35.4 INCHES · Grip length: 5 INCHES · Weight SWORD & SCABBARD: 3 ½ POUNDS · Blade thickness (base): .311 INCHES · Blade thickness (CoP): .16 INCHES · Blade width (base): 1.26 INCHES · Blade width (CoP): 1.02 INCHES · Point of Balance (PoB): 7.08 INCHES · Center of Percussion (CoP): 11.8 INCHES · SWORD WEIGHT 1020 GRAMS: = 2.4 POUNDS · SCABBARD WEIGHT 1020 GRAMS: = 2.4 POUNDS · Production volume: The British military needed large quantities of swords quickly, and marking each one individually could significantly slow down production. · Quality control: In some cases, unmarked swords might not have passed the same stringent quality checks as marked ones, leading to variations in manufacturing details. · Later modifications: Some swords might have been modified or re-issued throughout their service life, causing original markings to be removed or obscured. Identifying unmarked Pattern 1853 swords: · Blade characteristics: Examining the blade shape, curve, and quality of the steel can provide clues about the manufacturer, even if no markings are present. · Hilt details: Specific design features on the hilt, like the shape of the guard or the style of the grip, can help narrow down potential manufacturers.
