rdfs:comment
  • Szabla wz. 34 (literally "1934 Pattern Szabla") was the last service sword issued to the Polish cavalry and other mounted units of the Polish Army. One of the finest weapons in a long list of Polish sabres reaching back to early 16th century, although ironically its introduction occurred as swords finally became obsolete as military weapons. Successfully used in combat during the 1939 Invasion of Poland, it remains in service (as szabla wz. 1934/2002) as a ceremonial weapon.
