My amateur research has found a number of opinions on this Sword/Sabre. 1- French AN IX light cavalry Sabre, but blade not French. Blade Russian made in Zlatoust dated 1833. 2- Model 1837 Russian Cavalry Trouper's Sabre by Zlatoust, 1833, Crimean War Trophy 3- French An IX Cavalry saber, many were picked up in Russia during Napoleon's retreat, refitted as needed and issued as the Russian M1826 Any information that might clarify the swords identity would be appreciated. Does it look original or some kind of reproduction? Thank, Bill

Good question, better post this in the Renaissance and Military Swords section. It might be overlooked in the Beginners.
