General Joe Shelby was best known as "The Undefeated"--the only Confederate general who did not surrender at the end of the Civil War--instead, he took 1,000 troops south to Mexico to offer his sword in service to the Emperor Maximilian.

#500646 -- Of all the Confederate swords and sabers, this was the one most often used. The troops of Wade Hampton, J.E.B. Stuart and Nathan Bedford Forest decimated Union troops with this distinctive saber. The brass guard is similar to that of the 1860 Light Cavalry Saber. This is an authentic, hand-made replica with a flexible, ornate blade, and a leather grip wrapped in brass wire. The scabbard has brass furniture and ring mounts.
