Late 18th Century U.S. Naval Cutlass ?
I was wondering if anyone can identify the model of this cutlass. I believe it is an officers since it has a hanger slot for a portepee. The grip is unique as is the blade. There is a talisman or maker mark on both sides of the blade. There are very old nicks in the blade and it is still quite sharp. This piece has seen some action in it's day. I have not been able to id it or find a similair example to it. I put it next to a British piece to show the differnce.The blade is 73.5 cm. Does anyone have a similair example?
