US 1913 PATTON SABER SWORD W/ PICKET PIN, TENT PEG SCABBARD, ORIGINAL 1913 DATED

[Bill_Carman]

Running low and fast on eBay was an very nice model of the 1913 Patton Saber.  It has everything going for it.  Dated 1913 Springfield Armory, early serial number '1967', the really nice brown finish of the guard, a bright blade, early first run scabbard with the tent pole nipple, the grips in original 1913 configuration with the screws heads on the right side, and a picket pin and holder to boot.  Really, really nice and a hard one to get hold of.  Unfortunately I missed it, it went for $1.152.00.  I hope someone here on the Forum was able to lay claim to it and add it to their collection.  Well Played.

A nice early sword with an intact early scabbard fitting and picket pin.

That saber used to be in Tom Collison's collection.
