Product Description
Made in France by Claude Dozorme, Master cutler since 1902.
Under the French Napoleonic Empire, it was in fashion to slash open the neck of a bottle of Champagne with your saber to celebrate a victory on the battle field. It became a tradition in France which soon spread around the world.
Claude Dozorme has recreated a precious sabre with a gold plated guard, a 30cm non cutting blade (as required to slash the bottles). This sabre is available with a blue hilt & blue tassel or with a wood-inlay hilt & yellow tassel (Ref. Kellerman available here)
From La Confrerie du Sabre D'or
Art of Sabrage
"It can seem daunting when you are initially handed a sabre and a chilled bottle of Champagne with the expectation that you will sever the top of the bottle with the swords blade. Do not be downhearted! No-one has ever failed and all it needs is a firm wrist with a high elbow and youll be back at your table regaling your fellow guests with tales of how easy it really was.
When performed on a suitably chilled bottle of Champagne, the cork and glass annulus fly away, spilling little of the precious wine. The pressure of the Champagne always ensures that no glass falls back into the bottle. "...
