The men's sabre was one of seven fencing events on the Fencing at the 1924 Summer Olympics programme. It was the seventh appearance of the event, the only fencing event to have been on the programme at every Games. The competition was held from Tuesday July 16, 1924 to Thursday July 18, 1924. 47 fencers from 15 nations competed. Nations were limited to four fencers each, down from eight in 1920. The event was won by Sándor Pósta of Hungary, beginning a nine-Games streak in which Hungarians won the gold medal in the men's sabre (and was the third of eleven straight Games in which Hungary competed that a Hungarian won, with Hungary excluded from the 1920 competition). Roger Ducret of France took silver, while another Hungarian—János Garay—earned bronze.
