Windlass US Navy Model 1861 Cutlass

A close copy of a French Pattern cutlass, the Model 1861 cutlass replaced the M1841. The hilt is constructed of brass, with a leather wrapped grip bound with twisted brass wire. The blade is tempered carbon steel. The sword comes complete with a brass mounted leather scabbard with belt frog.

These fine reproduction swords are faithful copies of those used by the United States and Confederate Army and Navy during the Civil War. Made with excellent attention to detail, the hand forged blades are a tempered high carbon steel. The handles are wire wrapped leather, and the scabbards are made of leather, steel and brass. Despite their affordable price, these swords are an excellent, high quality reproduction.
