Military US Army Officer Saber Ceremonial Sword Replica

I believe this is a great value for the money. I bought this item because some of my duties are Ceremonial in nature but I don't do enough of them to justify paying over 400 dollars for the real deal.I was surprised by this product, it has weight to it and heft. The blade feels balanced and it is well connected to the handle. Very shiny saber cover, no more long nights with a rag and a can of Brasso.The saber does have engraving on the blade and to be honest, it isn't the best as far as detail goes, but, from a distance, nobody will notice the blade.It cost me more to purchase a saber chain and a saber guard then it did for this saber. I put on my Dress Blues and hooked the saber up to my Ceremonial Belt and it would absolutely pass inspection.If you want a great looking/feeling saber at a fraction of the cost for display or for military duties such as weddings, funerals, parades and so forth, this saber will serve you well.Go Army

We needed the army officer saber for our JROTC Drill Team Commander. Although we'd prefer "Made in the USA" the difference between $325 and this price made it a no brainer. Our Commander is 17 and a responsible young man so we didn't expect the sword to be abused and took a chance on this one. He's been practicing with it almost daily for the past month. Yes he has dropped it a number of times, but no damage. We have been to one competition and there were no issues with the judges (they never really got a close look at it though). The sword itself looks like the real deal and has similar weight/heft. Definitely meets our requirements and I would recommend to any JROTC unit.

Amazing product, unless you pay attention to minor details of it saying 'China' on the inscription side of the saber (origin on my mil-spec saber is on the obverse), and a close examination makes the etching appear more like a very well executed stamping/molding process it is great. It is of solid shape, and the scabbard is of same quality as my mil-spec saber. Unless you are on a full-time honor guard or planning to chop down the enemy with it you should be very very happy with it. I purchased 3 of these as a groomsmen gifts for a military wedding and they are all without defect. If I would have known these were this high quality I would not have paid the $280 for my milspec saber and just got another one of these. Highly recommend for ceremonial / gift giving purposes.

This is not the OFFICIAL saber sold by a company in Washington DC but it is an acceptable copy for those who want if for a wedding or a gift or just to mount on a wall for memorabilia. But bear in mind, it is 6 times cheaper. Yes it is made in China and it is stamped (cast) there near the hand guard. I solved that problem with a micro engraver from my local cheap tool store. Using the micro carbide ball on the engraver I obliterated the word China and it is not just a tiny finely ground area that is rally unnoticeable. As a Vietnam Era Vet I just had to take that off. Another problem area had to do with the casting of the hand guard. One side had a bit of "flash" metal that was irregular and I removed the nut from the guard and slid it off and touched that up with micro file. Back on and it is perfect. Getting it engraved is no simple task as I could only find one engraver in the Pittsburgh area who could accommodate such a long item in their machinery. I am having my name and rank placed on the saber and my name, branch and commission date on the scabbard. The engraver I finally found said that they have done quite a few of these and this would not be their first attempt! LOL

I got this sabre on time just as planned but when I revived it I went to pull it out of the scabbard and it was extremely difficult. There was a lot of grinding and scraping of the blade within the scabbard. I had to bend the piece so it didn't scrape as bad. (Even though it still does) other than that the sword it's self was beautiful and I have no other complaints about it.

I am a Junior ROTC Instructor. We purchased this Saber because of the Price... It is well worth the money... Our Armed Drill Team Commander used this Saber every day during practice and used it at the Nationals in Daytona Beach... It is very durable and is identical to the $300 versions. After our excessive use the handle does begin to feel a little loose at the grip, but it is still secure.

Great price for this sword. Top quality at a low price. My cadets love them. For is price you can't beat it. It's not the quality of Marlow White but then again there's cost like $500

I'm in the Army full-time and got married. SOO00ooo... thought i'd do a wedding arch. (very cool and recommend BTW) any ways, i initially bought one sword to check out the quality and to see what i thought. liked it so much that i went back and bought 5-more. liked them so much, i went back and purchased 2-more, for a total of 8. After the ceremony, I gave everyone that participated in the wedding arch the sword to keep (they were ecstatic about the gift and my wife absolutely loved the wedding arch. the arch was a surprise and... when we were walking up to the arch, she literally stopped in her tracks... AWESOME!!!)
