1. Very nice condition Model 1840 (Old Wristbreaker) Heavy Cavalry saber and scabbard.  Model 1840 sabers were extensively carried in the Civil War by both Union and Confederate Cavalry.  The famous Southern Cavalry Commander - General Nathan Bedford Forrest carried one as did many in his command.  This example has a clean, unmarked blade just beginning to darken with age.  The grip remains in nice condition with original wrap and wire.  The scabbard has a pretty uncleaned ageing grey-brown patina with just the normal small dings and marks from time in the saddle.  It was brought in today by a local family, and would have, no doubt, been Southern carried.--$850.SOLD

2. Massive 21 inch, Confederate, side knife/short sword that was blacksmith made from a "MOLE" marked Confederate, imported English, pattern 1853, cavalry saber.  It is quite possible that the saber may have been broken, and for that reason, turned into a side knife.  The blade was gradually tapered to a needle sharp point, and the sword's guard was expertly blacksmith crafted into a classic, Confederate, bowie "S-guard".  The original, English, pressed leather grips remain perfectly intact.  This is an excellent example of the Confederacy making do with what they had on hand.--$795.SOLD

3. SUPER RARE CONFEDERATE BOYLE AND GAMBLE SABER BAYONET.--$1,450.SOLD

4. Excavated, Confederate "Bridle Cutter Pike".  This pike was one of those recovered by Greg Craven from the Great Train Wreck in South Carolina.  It has been cleaned and coated, and is ready for display.--$350.

5. Blacksmith crafted, Confederate sideknife made from what appears to have been originally a kitchen knife.  The blade has been reshaped and is razor sharp, and a stag handle installed.  This is a very nice example of how Confederate soldiers turned everything from files, rasps, and kitchen cutlery etc. into fighting weapons.--$150.SOLD

6. Just in- Confederate manufacture "DOG RIVER" C.S. Cavalry saber in an 1840 Heavy Cavalry Saber scabbard.  This is out of an estate auction several years ago in Williamson County, TN.  The saber has a nice grey-brown blade with typical Southern "unstopped fuller" and a nice C.S. manufacture high copper content 3-branch brass guard.  The guard has a beautiful "never cleaned" rich bronze aged patina.  The saber was carried in a pre-War 1840 "Old Wristbreaker" scabbard as was frequently the case.  This will be a fine addition to any Southern Cavalry display.--$1,950.

7. Very rare, non-excavated, original Confederate "Georgia Pike" complete with about three feet of the original pole.  The pike itself has a never cleaned, rich, aged patina and will make a very nice addition to someone's Confederate edged weapon display.--$1,250.SOLD

8. Just brought in out of the local area, an untouched, Model 1840 import "Old Wristbreaker" Heavy Cavalry saber and scabbard.  Model 1840 Heavy Cavalry sabers were extensively used by both Union and Confederate Cavalry during the American Civil War.  The famous Southern Cavalry Commander, General Nathan Bedford Forrest carried one as did many in his command.  This saber has a clean blade, just beginning to gray with age.  About 1/2 of the original grip remains intact and the other half is worn to wood.  The cast brass, 3-branch guard has a dark, aged patina and has a small piece at the very top severed.  The scabbard has a thick, brown, never cleaned, aged patina with clear evidence of wear and several dings and marks from lots of field service.  This is a Cavalry saber that clearly "saw the elephant".--$695.

9. Just in, untouched, Confederate manufactured "Dog River" CS Enlistedman's Cavalry saber.  The blade has the classic Confederate unstopped fuller and a never cleaned, thick, chocolate brown attic patina from tip to tip.  The brass guard is classic, high copper content, Confederate manufactured, and also has a thick, bronze/brown, aged patina.  The grip is original with single strand, copper wire, and the leather is worn through to wood in several areas.  The scabbard has a matching, thick, brown patina and is an era replacement being a standard iron mounted 1840 heavy cavalry saber scabbard.  The original brass mounted scabbard was no doubt damaged somewhere along the way.  This is a very nice example of Southern craftsmanship and ingenuity.--$2,250.SOLD

10. Very nice condition, English import, pattern 1853, Cavalry trooper's saber and scabbard.  This pattern saber was imported into the Confederacy and quite often encountered.  They are noted with several different retailers' marks, including "Mole" and "Isaac & Co."   They are also often encountered unmarked, and that is exactly the case with this example.  The blade is in excellent condition with no pitting at all, and the pressed leather grips remain in perfect condition.  The saber retains its original scabbard and is also in very nice condition.  The vast majority of the pattern 1853 English Cavalry sabers that I have encountered over the years have had Confederate association.  This example is in very nice condition and would make a great addition to someone's Confederate Cavalry display.--$750.

11. Absolutely beautiful condition, SUPER RARE, Confederate manufactured wooden scabbard Confederate Cavalry saber.  Most collectors now believe this to be a product of Kraft, Goldschmidt, and Kraft of Columbia, SC.  This extremely rare Confederate saber was for many years believed a product of H. Marshall of Atlanta, GA.  This example has a bright, clean blade and an excellent grip with original wrap and wire.  The original wooden scabbard is one of the nicest that I have seen in years.  This fine Confederate Cavalry saber was for many years on display in a GAR Post in Boston.  You couldn't ask for a nicer example of this extremely scarce Confederate manufactured Cavalry saber and scabbard.--$8,500.

12. Very nice condition, Confederate Manufacture "Dog River" CS Cavalry saber and scabbard.  The blade has a smooth, attic brown patina, and the grip has original wrap and wire and a beautiful aged bronze patina on the Confederate cast red brass guard.  The scabbard is soldered lap seam Confederate construction with heavy brass ring mounts.  This saber shows clear evidence of saddle wear and has several small dings and marks from actual field service.  Any Confederate collector would be proud to have this Confederate produced Cavalry saber in their collection.--$4,250.

13. Very nice condition, Confederate "Dog River" CS Cavalry saber in original, brass-mounted, metal scabbard.  The blade has a smooth, gently aging, gray/brown patina with classic Confederate unstopped fuller.  The blade was sharpened during the Civil War Era, and to this day, has an edge that will nearly shave you.  (General Nathan Bedford Forrest's Cavalry is quite well known for this practice.)  The guard has an aged, bronze patina with classic Confederate high copper content.  The grip has original, single-strand, iron wire, and a portion of the original leather wrap with the remaining area worn to polished wood.  The scabbard remains in beautiful condition with heavy brass mounts and a lead-filled lap seam running from top to bottom.  It has a deep, uncleaned, chocolate brown, attic patina.  This is a Confederate saber that anyone would be proud to have on their wall.--$4,250.

14. Just brought in out of the local area "Henry Boker - Solingen" Model 1860, light cavalry saber and scabbard.  The blade has a smooth, gray/brown, aging patina with crisp, clear Henry Boker marks.  The grip is in nice condition with original wrap and wire.  The three branch, brass guard is in nice condition with a never cleaned, bronze/brown patina.  The metal scabbard is in very nice condition with an aged, brown patina and is without even a single dent.  Considering where this saber came from, it was very likely Confederate carried.--$795.SOLD

15. Very nice condition, Model 1840, "Old Wristbreaker," heavy cavalry saber and scabbard.  This was just brought in from the local area and was almost certainly Confederate carried.  Model 1840's were extensively carried during the Civil War by both Union and Confederate Cavalry.  The famous Southern Cavalry Commander, General Nathan Bedford Forrest, carried one as did many of the men in his command.  This example has a nice, clean, unmarked blade just beginning to darken a little with age.  The cast brass, 3-branch guard remains in excellent condition with a smooth, aged, bronze patina.  The grip retains a good portion of original wrap and wire but the leather is wearing through in some areas on the high points.  This is a very nice example of the saber most carried by Confederate Cavalry.  This family had numerous members that were in the 8th Tennessee Cavalry - C.S.A. and quite likely was carried by one of them.--$795.SOLD

16. Very nice condition, Model 1840, "Old Wristbreaker," heavy cavalry saber and scabbard.  This was just brought in from the local area and was almost certainly Confederate carried.  Model 1840's were extensively carried during the Civil War by both Union and Confederate Cavalry.  The famous Southern Cavalry Commander, General Nathan Bedford Forrest, carried one as did many of the men in his command.  This example has a nice, clean, unmarked blade just beginning to darken a little with age.  The cast brass, 3-branch guard remains in excellent condition with a smooth, aged, bronze patina.  The grip retains original wrap and wire but is wearing through in some areas on the high points.  This is a very nice example of the saber most carried by Confederate Cavalry.--$795.SOLD 

17. Confederate manufactured, Roman style, Artillery Short Sword.  The blade has an overall dark patina with some pitting in areas.  The massive cast brass guard has a rich, aged, bronze patina and shows typical Confederate crudity and flaws.  Every Confederate collection needs a CS manufactured Artillery Short Sword.--$1,150.

18. Very nice condition, original, non-excavated Confederate Pike Head with a small portion of the original wooden shaft.  It measures 17" overall with a 9" Pike blade.  There is a law that says, "Every Confederate blade collector must have an example of an original Confederate Pike."--$895.

19. Beautiful condition 11 inch Confederate sideknife in original brass mounted leather sheath.  The blade remains bright as in 1860 and is razor sharp.  The grip is made of turned "concentric ring" rosewood.  You are not going to see a prettier little Rebel sideknife.--$950.

20. Massive, Confederate, D-Guard bowie measuring 24 inches overall with an 18 1/2 inch blade.  It has a beautiful, never cleaned, chocolate brown patina with its original walnut grip perfectly intact.  In the words of Crocodile Dundee - "NO---this is a knife!!"--$1,750.SOLD

21. Very nice condition, Confederate Arsenal manufactured, Naval Cutlass in original leather scabbard.  The blade remains clean and bright and measures 21 1/2 inches in length.  The grip is crudely cast, and the guard appears to be cast, but actually has the edge folded back to make the perimeter.  It is marked only with a serial number.  Some collectors feel this to be a product of Cook & Brothers while others feel it to be a Leech and Rigdon product.  I personally lean toward it being a Leech and Rigdon product because of its similarity to some of their other products.  The leather scabbard remains complete and original, but is missing the brass throat and drag at the top and bottom of the scabbard.  It has been a long time since I have seen a Confederate manufactured cutlass with a blade this nice.--$4,250.SOLD

22. Nice condition "CS" marked, Roman style, Confederate Artillery short sword.  This example has a smooth, chocolate brown blade with a rich, aged, bronze patina on the massive, cast copper/brass guard.  The guard is marked "CS" in the center of the cross guard on each side and also has a recessed star cast into each side of the pommel.  Many collectors believe this pattern Confederate Artillery sword is likely to have been made at the Selma Confederate Armory.--$3,250.SOLD

23. Excellent condition, Confederate "CS marked" short artillery sword.  This sword is of the style that has the "CS and star" cast into each side of the massive cast brass guard.  The blade has a smooth, aging, gray/brown patina with no pitting whatsoever.  Partially completed examples of this type sword have been recovered in the river near Selma, Alabama, and it is thought these swords might have been made there.  This is as nice an example of this rare style Confederate sword as I have had in a long time.--$3,450.SOLD

24. Absolutely beautiful E.J. Johnston (of Macon, GA), Confederate manufactured, short Artillery sword. This type sword is easily recognizable by its concentric ring pattern on the cast brass guard. The cast guard is cast from typical Confederate high copper alloy material. The blade is in very nice condition, with a smooth, chocolate patina, and several typical Confederate casting impurity areas. The cast brass guard has an absolutely beautiful rich, aged-never cleaned-bronze patina. This is a Confederate manufactured sword that rarely comes up for sale.--$1,950.SOLD

25. Extremely rare, Virginia manufactured Cavalry saber manufactured at the Virginia Armory located in Richmond.  As originally designed, these Cavalry saber blades were massively long, measuring a full 40 1/2 inches.  These sabers were designed to be carried by a cross-shoulder sling and frog; therefore, the all iron scabbards were fitted at the throat only with a stud to engage the frog.  Many of the massively long Virginia manufactured sabers had the blades slenderized and shortened to the more 1860 era conventional 32 to 36 inch length.  The sabers were also re-scabbarded to conform with the standard 1860 method of carrying.  These scabbards were of iron with brass ring mounts and rings.  The throat and drag were of iron.  This example has a very nice condition, slenderized blade, measuring 35 1/2 inches long.  The brass mounted iron scabbard is in excellent condition, but does show clear wear from time in the saddle.  The grip is worn to polished wood with a small piece missing just at the rear base.  The saber has typical VA regimental markings on the top of the blade.  It has a beautiful, untouched, attic patina throughout with no evidence at all of cleaning.--$4,250.

26. Fresh in the door, crude, blacksmith-made, 17" Confederate Bowie Knife.  The blade is blacksmith handcrafted from a large rasp and has many rasp teeth still remaining visible, both on the flats of the blade and along the upper edge.  The copper ferrule around the walnut handle and the brass washer around the riveted tang have a 150-year-old, never cleaned, rich bronze/brown aged patina.  This is a wicked hand-made Confederate weapon, and still remains sharp enough to easily cut you.  It is going to be a fine addition to someone's Confederate blade display.--$975.

27. Absolutely beautiful 1840 era militia officer's sword in its original ornate brass scabbard with the Horstmann and Son's motif actually a part of the scabbard.  The grip is beautiful "Mother of Pearl", and the ornate cast brass guard forms a large Federal shield, and has a knight's head pommel cap.  The blade is pretty and clean - just beginning to darken with age - and has pretty and very ornate engraving top to bottom.  This surfaced in Atlanta, GA. and was very likely "C.S." carried as is often the case with prewar Militia Officer Swords.  This is so pretty that it is nearly a "work of art".--$1,895.

28. Beautiful condition Confederate Pike complete with cuff and several inches of the original pole.  These original Confederate Pikes were sold by Bannerman during the 1950's era and he cut the poles into so that they were much easier and less expensive to ship.  Every Confederate collection should have an example of an original Confederate Pike.--$1,150.
29. Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful high grade 1840 era Militia Officer's sword and scabbard.  The pommel cap is an intricate, finely detailed gilted cast brass eagle, as is the sword's cast brass cross guard.  BOTH the brass scabbard and the blade have finely detailed engraving, and the grip is very old ivory.  Only a high ranking officer would have carried a sword of this fine grade.  Anyone that comes to look at your collection will stop in their tracks when they get to this one.  Swords of this type were carried by both Union and Confederate High Ranking Officers.--$1,850.

1. Exceptionally pretty Model 1850 Federal Foot Officer's Sword and Scabbard.  The blade remains sparkling bright with crisp Federal engraving from top to bottom.  The original wrap and wire remains intact on the grip, and the original leather scabbard is complete with no breaks or weak spots.  This sword is "Museum Grade" and would be a fine addition to any collection.--$1,150.SOLD

2. Nice condition, Model 1840, "AMES PRODUCTION" Heavy Cavalry Saber and Scabbard.  The blade is clean, just beginning to gray with age and is marked, "US - A.D.K. - Ames Mfg Co - Cabotville - 1851".  The three branch, cast brass guard has an attractive, uncleaned, bronze, aged patina, and the grip is complete with original wrap and wire.  The scabbard has a smooth, aged, brown patina, and it is without a single dent.--$1,150.

3. Very nice condition, Model 1860, Mansfield and Lamb, Federal, light cavalry saber and scabbard.  The blade remains bright and clean with markings of "US - 1864 - Mansfield & Lamb".  The three branch brass guard remains i perfect condition with a nice, uncleaned, aged patina.  The grip has original wrap and wire and is almost as nice as when issued.  The scabbard remains in excellent condition with only one or two small dings from actual field service.  This is a first class Model 1860 light cavalry saber and scabbard.--$895.

4. Beautiful condition, Model 1840, Ames Non-Commissioned Officer, Federal sword and scabbard.  The blade remains clean and bright with Ames on the scroll marking on one side and dated 1864 and marked "US" on the other.  The leather scabbard remains complete and in very nice condition tip to tip.--$695.

Pluribus Unum - etc.".  The ornate cast brass guard has a rich never cleaned aged patina, and the grip has original shark skin and wire.  The sword shows clear signs of having actually been carried.  This would be a wonderful sword to begin your Civil War collection.--$550.

7. Very rare EARLY DATE Model 1860 light cavalry saber and scabbard.  This came out of a local Middle Tennessee estate years ago and was very likely Confederate carried.  The blade has a smooth gently aging grey-brown patina with maker markings of "Ames Mfg. Co. - 1861 - and U.S."  The scabbard has a pleasing aged brown patina with tons of drag wear, and the ring is worn 1/4th way through the ring mount.  This saber saw many campaigns in the saddle, and could no doubt tell some great battle stories.--$1,295.

Pluribus Unum".  The original sharkskin and wire remains perfectly intact on the grip.  The scabbard has a slick brown aged patina with only a couple of small dings from use.  A nice honest example that has clearly seen field service.--$895.

11. Nice condition, Model 1840, Federal Light Artillery saber and scabbard.  This example was manufactured by Emerson and Silver which is a seldom seen maker of Artillery sabers.  The blade is clean, just beginning to lightly darken with age.  It is marked "Emerson & Silver - Trenton, NJ - 1863".  The scabbard has a smooth, brown, aged patina with several service dings on the lower half.--$895.

15. Quite rare, Model 1860, Union enlisted Cavalry saber and scabbard by maker J.E. Bleckmann imported from Solingen, Prussia.  It is believed that only about 5,000 of these sabers were actually received from Bleckmann.  The firm of J.E. Bleckmann was located in Solingen, Prussia, and the sabers were considered quality, well made pieces.  The blade has Bleckmann's signature mark of a bow and arrow with "B and M" inside of the bow.  The blade on this saber is clean and well marked.  The three-branch brass guard has a rich, aged, never cleaned patina.  The grip is worn to polished wood indicating the saber saw considerable service.  The iron scabbard remains in very nice condition without even a single dent.--$750.

Ames Springfield" on one side and "United States - 1835" on the other.  The short sword is mounted on the extremely rare, original, white buff belt with the two disc style cast brass buckle.  The belt remains complete and quite pliable.  It has been close to two years since I've had a complete rig like this one.--$2,450.

Co. - Chicopee, Mass. - U.S. - 1864" and the scabbard is in nice condition as well with only one little spot that has a little re-enforcing right at the bottom.--$595.SOLD

Bayonets

1. Beautiful condition, non-excavated, .69 cal., Model 1842, triangular, socket bayonet.  The bayonet has a smooth, gently aging, gray patina with a crisp "US" mark.  If you have a nice Model 1842 .69 cal. musket, this is the perfect compliment for it.--$250.

2. Very rare Type I Cook and Brother Confederate saber bayonet.  This style bayonet was likely produced in New Orleans prior to Cook and Bro. being forced to relocate in Athens, GA.  The bayonet has a nice aged patina, and is in very nice condition, but does have the top part of the brass barrel ring broken.  This could easily be restored if desired.  Most of these bayonets were produced for the State of Alabama.--$895.

3. .58 cal., triangular socket bayonet, correct for .58 cal. Springfield or contract 3-band rifled muskets.  The metal is smooth, just beginning to darken with age.  It was apparently a private purchase, because there are no US marks.--$195.

4. Very nice condition, non-excavated, 4-side, "Austrian" socket bayonet.  These were extensively Southern used, and all that I have recovered over the years were from Confederate occupied sites.--$195.

5. REALLY NICE excavated .577 cal. Enfield triangular socket bayonet.  This bayonet was recovered about 40 years ago from the Confederate lines on private property here at Stones River.  It is rusty - just as dug - but remains solid as a rock.--$150.

6. Nice condition non-excavated .577 cal. Enfield/Tower triangular socket bayonet.  An excellent compliment to display with your .577 cal. 3-band Enfield/Tower rifled musket.--$195.

8. Excavated, .69 cal., Model 1816, friction fit, triangular, socket bayonet.  This bayonet was recovered from Confederate lines on private property here at Stones River over 30 years ago.  It has about the last one inch of the tip of the blade broken off, which is likely why the bayonet was discarded.  Still an excellent piece for any excavated relic display.--$125.

9. Very nice condition excavated .58 cal. Civil War Springfield triangular socket bayonet.  This was recovered about 40 years ago on private property along the Federal Battle Line here at Stones River.  These are rarely ever recovered now, and those that are recovered now have serious ground decay.--$125.SOLD
