Anton,
I don't think that la Sabretache was not an instrument of any kind. It is only the name of the house that originally produced the drawings.

Gents! We all know hussars were dressed not like any other unit in the army. No matter who they served - Napoleon, Alexander or Wilhelm. You'll see the same elements of the dress - doloman, pelisse and.... sabretache. For example here http://www.100megsfree4.com/napwars/article7.html are three nice pictures representing hussars and guard chasseurs wearing it all. If it's almost everything clear with the dress itself I still can't imagine what this sabretache was used for. [:I] Any ideas?

Try this: http://kildare.ie/Monasterevin-Historic ... ussars.htm "A second, waist belt, held the sabretache, a covered notebook. Troopers had plain black leather while officers had elaborately ornamented covers." It was mainly ornamental but it had a notebook on the other side. Often they wore a leather cover over it to keep it from the weather. Hussar experts might want to chime in on this. Oberst-Lt Wilhelm Peters 2nd Kuirassiers, Austrian Army |

Stop!!! No more links!! I loved it. Have been wanting to find some military prints. Of course these are from England so I will have to pay higher shipping. I actually have found many military art sites in the US. I found so many pics on your site you reference I would be broke in a week! Oberst-Lt Wilhelm Peters 2nd Kuirassiers, Austrian Army |

Bill - If you're not in a great hurry, let me know what you want (or order them and have them sent to me) and I can tote them home in the spring and mail them to you from NC. [:)] Sous-Lt Sean Turner 1er Dragons 2ème Division de Dragons Ier Corps de Réserve de Cavalerie l'Armee du Nord |
