Reproduction of George Washington\'s sword of 1757, later gifted to his nephew Lawrence. Period correct for both the F&I and Revolutionary Wars. The sword is silver plated brass, as was the original.The shape of a colichemarde blade features a wideforte, which abruptly tapers to a much narrower form at a point varying between a fifth to a third of the blade length from the hilt. The blade cross section was most often triangular and hollow-ground. This configuration combines goodparryingcharacteristics, due to the wide blade forte, with the good maneuverability and thrusting characteristics.
