Szabla (Polish pronunciation: [ˈʂabla]; plural: szable) is the Polish word for sabre. The sabre was in widespread use in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth during the early modern period, especially by light cavalry in the 17th century. The sabre became widespread in Europe following the Thirty Years' War and was also adopted by infantry. In particular, it served as one of the symbols of the nobility and aristocracy (szlachta), who considered it to be one of the most important pieces of men's traditional attire.
