This is a sword blade only for a light cavalry saber, perhaps the US New Model Light Cavalry of the 1860s. It was reportedly found "on a battle field in Oklahoma." Unfortunately, I did not make notes of the location/place name and have had it set back for years.
Overall length is ~39-1/2" (peen area of tang was broken off at some time, no hilt remains); blade length is ~35"; blabde width at ricasso is ~1-1/8"; thickness is ~5/16". No maker's marks or stampes are visisble but it is very similar to contract swords of the period, not unlike an Ames or Roby.
As mentioned, the tang is broken where the peened area would have been; tang length is ~4-3/8". Blade has been sharpened and has numerous edge nicks (see images).
Sold as is.
