FAQ

Q: Will this sleeve fit any sabre?

A: It fits most standard sabres up to 125 cm in total length. Very short or unusually long blades may not be an exact fit.

Q: What material is the sleeve made from?

A: The sleeve is made from a durable, high-quality cloth (panno) chosen to protect metal finishes while resisting everyday wear.

Q: Is the drawstring closure secure enough for transport?

A: Yes. The drawstring (laccetto) provides a tight closure that helps prevent the sabre from slipping out during normal transport and handling.

Q: Can I machine wash the sleeve?

A: Hand washing in cold water with mild soap is recommended. Machine washing and heat drying can reduce fabric performance over time.

Q: Which colors are available?

A: The sleeve comes in two classic colors: green (traditional/military style) and black (discreet, formal look).

Q: Why choose a cloth sleeve instead of a hard case?

A: A cloth sleeve is lightweight, gentle on metal finishes and easy to carry. It is ideal for storage, short transport and events where a tactical or military surplus look is preferred.
