Congrats, you got yourself a steal!

What is so "moronic" about his/her description?

CIVIL WAR SWORD /KNIFE
This may be from Indian war, it has 1910 and emblem on 1 side a couple of letters on other. case has brass on tip about 3" with a ball on end and 2 straps at top it is sharp, do not believe its a replica.

And by the way, this piece does date to the Civil War, the Russian one...

Civil Indian War? Yup, Reds against Whites would describe both quite nicely:-)

Excuse me, but -

That goes for India as well.
