Historical Background:
Officer of the Volunteers of the West, former Papal Zouaves, Army of the Loire, 1870.
Introduced in 1882, the model of the officer’s infantry broadsword remained in service with the French army until 1923, when it was replaced by a new model unified for all French armed forces.
In France, the center of gunmaking is Saint-Etienne, but there are also quite a number of gun factories in Paris, so both cities have their own testing stations and therefore their own brands.
The French officer’s infantry broadsword of 1882 is one of the outstanding examples of French military weapons of the late 19th century. This broadsword was used by infantry officers, symbolizing their bravery and devotion to service. The blade of the broadsword was made of high quality steel, which ensured its strength and durability. The handle was ergonomically designed for ease of use during combat. It became an important element in the armament of the French army, leaving its mark on the history of military conflicts of the time.
