This has been in my inventory since purchased in 2021. It was listed as an original 1860 cavalry scabbard. My scabbards were 1840 and this did not fit. I have sold my other scabbards and now offer this for sale. I believe this to be an original but listing as a reproduction to avoid any misrepresentation.
Throat size is external measurements; 1-3/4" x 1" x 1-1/8" length, add the wing tabs for an overall length of 2-3/8"
The interior opening can take a sword of 1/2" x 1-3/16".
Please review the photos to determine its application to your scabbard and condition. This scabbard throat design has tabs on side that under compression slide into the scabbard.
I ship insured by USPS priority box and only ship to 48 contiguous states, NO shipping to PO Box or foreign shipments;. Be sure of your purchase.
