VERY RARE SHARP & HAMILTON, NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE MARKED CAVALRY SWORD. There are few cavalry sabers by this maker that are this nice. There are probably less then 10 examples of this marked sword and this by far has the best markings we have seen. The massive blade, just over 36â³, is marked on the ricasso on opposite sides, âSHARP & HAMILTONâ and âNASHVILLE, TENNâ in raised relief cartouches. The grip is carved wood with brown leather and twisted copper wire. Grip is bound by an iron backstrap with an iron ferrule and birdâs head pommel. The cast brass guard is unique to this pattern. This company is much better known for their manufacture of Nashville Plow Works Sabers. This is probably the finest example known of this rare sword and is in beautiful untouched condition. PROVENANCE: James c. Harris CONDITION: Blade is gray with scattered areas of staining and pitting. Markings are crisp, as can be seen in photos. Hilt is smooth overall with scattered dings, dents and scratches with mustard color patina to brass. Accompanying scabbard is of type made in Columbus, Georgia but are often seen on Nashville products and most likely were contracted as such. Scabbard fits well with scattered staining and pitting. 8-76340 JS10 (20,000-25,000)
