Naval Cutlass?
Mods: I have exhausted every avenue of western, and or European ID on this weapon. I bought it in hopes that it may be an unknown Confederate variant. The majority believe it to be Mexican, or Spanish Colonial. Maybe even Filippino. Please don't move this thread, till a little info is gathered. Thanks. Well, as stated, whatizzit? The hilt contains all the attributes of a Confederate "Dog River" cavalry sword. However, the applied thumb rest, blade shape, and all-leather scabbard are a mystery. With the "D" rings on the scabbard, I assume it was meant to be worn on the back, not belt. Blade is 27 1/2" long, 1 5/8" wide. Any ideas?
