  1. There is no such thing as an enlisted mans M1872 cavalry saber. This as close as you can get. It is shown in the Ames sword Co. !882 catalog as a Model 524 on page 150. The other sabers of this type can be smaller and were made for military schools and other other para-military associations.

  2. This is shown as a Model 524 on page 150 of the Ames Sword Co. 1882 catalog. They are uncommon. The way to spot one is the round area were the knuckle guard hooks into the pommel. It is slightly shorter and lighter than the M1860. Despite the Ames description it was never an official US Army saber.
