- Note
- "A sabre (British English) or saber (American English) is a type of backsword with a curved blade associated with the light cavalry of the early modern and Napoleonic periods. Originally associated with Central-Eastern European cavalry such as the hussars, the sabre became widespread in Western Europe in the Thirty Years´ War. Lighter sabres also became popular with infantry of the late 17th century.
In the 19th century, models with less curving blades became common and were also used by heavy cavalry.
The last sabre issued to US cavalry was the Patton saber of 1913. Szabla wz. 34 was the last sabre issued to the Polish cavalry, in 1934." - (en.wikipedia.org 09.01.2020)
