Original U.S. Civil War Rare Model 1860 Naval Cutlass by Ames Mfg. Co. with Rare Leather Riveted Scabbard - Dated 1862 Madsen LMG 1871 in SolingenOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of the rarely seen U. S. Naval Cutlass, as used from 1860 1865. The boarding cutlass was derived from the French pattern of 1833, often referred to as a cullere a pot, or more commonly called the soup ladle weapon. It features all brass mounts, leather wrapped sword grip, and a nice riveted leather scabbard. These scabbards were riveted instead of stitched, as saltwater destroys stitching
