"Because of the short-lived nature of this corps, it is likely that more of these sabers were made than were allotted to the musketeers. Indeed, we note that in recognition of the services rendered to the monarchy during the years of exile, the King distributed, as a reward, around one hundred and fifty of these sabers. To do this, they underwent only a minimal transformation, replacing the plate bearing the Musketeer Cross with one bearing the arms of France" in Armes blanches militaire françaises fascicule 1, Année 1967.
