I recently got to handle what I believe to be a cold steel napolean saber. I attempted to test it(balanced on finger and made sure it didn't fall with other hand) and found the pob must've been about 7-8inches down the blade from the guard. Also it felt very heavy(kinda dead in hand unlike my atrim ms1503 or even ppk), and I'm not sure if it's because of the pob, or maybe it was heavier than advertised.

Maybe I didn't test it right, but I'm wondering where the pob of a real saber should be?

Edit: Maybe not 7-8inches, but it sure looked much farther out then I've tested it to be on my swords.
