C583. CONFEDERATE NAVAL CUTLASS - COURTNEY AND TENNENT, CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA: This is a Confederate Naval cutlass made by Robert Mole, Birmingham, England and sold to the South. It is complete with the original scabbard. Mole was an exporter who supplied military goods and swords to the Confederate central government through the importer Courtney & Tennent of Charleston, SC. It has a brass cavalry style guard with a checkered pressed leather grip. The iron blade is retailer marked “Courtney & Tennent / Charleston SC.” on the left ricasso and “MOLE” on the top edge of the blade, just below the guard. The cutlass blade is 19 1/2” long, double-edged, 1 3/4” wide at the grip and has a single, tapering fuller on each side; and a pleasing, mottled medium dark gray-brown patina with no rust or pitting. The edge appears to have been period sharpened. The hilt is tight with an even dark brown mustard patina, and retains the original blade washer. The top branch on both the cutlass and brass guard saber were prone to cracking and braking, and this top branch was period removed. The workmanship is so well done that one would think it was casted without the top branch. The original scabbard has both brass mounts and the leather is strong with expected crazing, but the back seam is open. This is a very fine example of a Confederate cutlass that saw service during the American Civil War. Shipping & Insurance included. $5900.00
