This is a Model 1854 Toledo Cavalry Saber. I am not an expert in this area but I have consulted with several sword collectors and this seems to be the consensus. The blade and scabbard are iron. The blade is marked F(?) DeToledo 1856 and has no significant nicks. The overall length in the scabbard is 41.25 inches. The blade is 34.5 inches. The scabbard has one significant dent about 2 inches from the drag. The sword stop is not present. The handle maintains most of the original wood and no leather wrap. It has some wire wrap. The handle is loose but secure. The guard has a nice crown proof and (?) V. Hanging at Malcoms or Joe's.
