In 1925, the second meeting of the cavalry chiefs of the Red Army (workers 'and peasants'
Red Army), which discussed the issue of adopting a new type of shashkas.
Of course, no one was going to seriously change anything - the blades of 1881 were very
perfect. After discussion, a new type of checker was approved - combining the blade of the former
dragoon model and the hilt of the Don Cossack saber. This shashka pattern was adopted on
weapons, but the first "real Soviet" checker appeared in November 1927, when
armament of the Red Army, a single shashka sample was introduced - the 1927 model. Single shashka 1927
differed from the dragoon shashka of 1881 in a less wide heel, a greater angle of inclination
shank and a single dimension now 32-in. (81.28 cm). It is the shashka of the sample 1927
was put into mass production.
The shashka was adopted by the command and command personnel of the cavalry of the Red Army, in
other types of troops - those persons of command and command personnel who were supposed to carry
horse service. Since 1932, the saber was worn only when in the ranks. Despite the fact that in
1940, new models of edged weapons for command and
the commanding staff of the Red Army, shashka arr. 1927 continued to be applied during the Great
World War II.
Since then, the Soviet military industry to the creation of combat drafts and other
cold weapons with a long blade did not return. Although the tradition of using shashkas in
as an award or gift weapon has not gone anywhere and is preserved even in our time,
the only large-scale "combat" Soviet shashkas were the 1927 samples.

high strength, elastic, wear-resistant and viscous properties. Manganese in composition
steel is designed to increase its elasticity and tensile strength, resistance to shock loads.
