Hello,All.I just need a few questions answered.I am not a full time sword collector.I just seen this sword and liked it,so I bought it.
It is,best I can tell,the M1843 Artillery or Engineer short sword.It's made in TOLEDO,SPAIN.It's dated 1897 (Spanish-American War era).It has the lions head as opposed to the circular round part w/ flaming bomb.I would like to know WHERE this type of sword was used.Was it in Cuba,Philippenes,or some other theater of war.There are no other marks,that I can tell.It's very well used,even as a weed whacker.It looks like it hit a fence a few times.ALSO,does anybody make a repro scabbard for these.If so,who.I thank-you for your time.
