Ultra Rare Presentation Grade Civil War Sword Scabbard Mounts/Fittings Set
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:131175 |
I have been collecting swords for al...most 20 years now and militaria for much longer and this is the first full set I have seen like this in that time.
Fitting dimensions are: Drag: 7" long, 1 1/4" X 1/2" at opening, Middle fitting: almost 5" long, opening 1 7/16" at either end X 5/8" and 9/16" respectively, Top fitting almost 5" with opening by 5/8" and 3/4" respectively The throat used on these metal scabbards is the typical style and available now and then here on Ebay....if someone is putting together a scabbard set for a naked blade.
The rings are the soldered closed style typical of early swords from the 17 and1800's. They have a very nice patina, or could be cleaned up if so desired....I leave that to the new caretaker of these pieces of history.
Please ask any questions that the pics or the description do not answer and I will do my best to answer them for you.
Happy collecting......
This will be the last time I relist this....if it does not sell I will just keep them for a wall display. Thanks for all the interest and questions to date.....
