I figured that my posts 1861-65 would be American Civil War blades. I like these blades and wonder if they were the SY blades of their time? I do not know a lot about blades of the CW except a lot were carried, especially by the soldiers of the South, and used in last resort situations--like today. Anyway here they are. Hope you enjoy the pics. Wonder how the tip was broken? Battle, a kid, prying something open? Men you can't trust, women you can't trust, beasts you can't trust, but Bussekin steel you can trust
