Light Saber

A Model 1860 Cavalry Light Saber / Sabre from the Civil War. This baby is an interesting piece of history. I think I'll change the title to the British spelling one month (Sabre) and the American spelling the next ( Saber). That will make everybody happy, maybe! :-)

How many people clicked on this video expecting to see a lightsaber from Star Wars? Just me?

Throughout the entire video, all I was thinking was "Go for the gong!"

I love to see someone working out with an old blade. Swords aren't happy unless they're flourished occasionally, and maybe cut- well, at least the odd melon...

What's that one weigh out at, about two and a quarter pounds? Where's the balance on that piece?

When I saw "light saber" I thought it was gonna be one of those star wars swords, I was like Wtf!?!?

A bummer for me is that a lot of these sabers have an asymmetrical guard, so they they would be awkward for left-handed individuals such as myself. I could probably have a left-handed model commissioned for me back in the day, but I would be hard pressed to find such a service now.

Hickok, defenseless law mowers, poor unassuming pumpkins, albino squirrels... And now you viciously dismember an innocent watermelon. Your a revengeful sort of guy, sir! But I love your videos!
