Etymology
The term 'sabering' comes from the word 'saber,' which originated from the word 'sabre,' a type of curved sword. The practice has a history that dates back to the Napoleonic Wars when French cavalry officers would often use their sabers to celebrate military victories by opening wine bottles. Over time, this practice became a popular and theatrical method of opening champagne bottles during festive occasions. Sabering requires a specific technique, where one uses the blade of the saber to slide along the neck of the bottle, striking at the lip to break it off. This not only makes for an impressive display but also symbolizes celebration and luxury.
