Alongside the British light cavalry sword, the Model 1811 was used by Prussian hussars, dragoons, uhlans, horse artillery and by the militia cavalry Landwehr who had been raised in 1813 to fight against the French. The only type of Prussian cavalry not to make use of the Model 1811, or its British counterpart, were the kuirassiers, who retained their straight-bladed and brass-hilted pallasch.
