Dear Theodore, we need to see the Russian stamp with double contour. This stamp (double contour) on the arms factory Zlatoust not exist. All participants of the 2 Russian forums without joining in the debate said that the stamp - a fake. And in one case, I put only photos stamp. In order to not influence the opinion of the participants.
Russian saber of light cavalry in 1827 is very different from the later production Zlatoust . It is not well-known marks Zlatoust (with the Russian double-headed eagle stamp). Just inscription (engraving, hand made) on the back of the blade. In Russia, the Russian saber 1827 is 6-10 times more expensive than the French saber 1827. Therefore, this is one of the most counterfeited saber models. And modern masters have reached the highest level in the manufacture of fake.
