Original U.S. Civil War Model 1860 Navy Cutlass made by Ames.

Blade is marked D.R. beneath U.S.N. and is also found on the cap of the basket.  Daniel Reynolds, USN was a navy inspector in 1863.   No nicks or chips in the blade but minor rust spots are found.  The basket is marked 16M 308.  Leather on grip is present but wire wrap is not.  Overall a very good representative piece which will display well.

$550
