US Civil War Ames Artillery Sword Dated 1865

Antique US Civil War Artillery Sword & Scabbard – Ames Maker, Dated 1865

This is a U.S. Civil War–era artillery short sword manufactured by Ames, dated 1865 on the blade. A historical piece with all the characteristic features of the late-war Ames production.

The sword shows honest age and service wear throughout. The blade has visible nicks and small edge chips from use—typical for combat-carried examples from this period. The brass hilt exhibits patina and handling wear, and the scabbard shows age-appropriate marks but remains solid and intact.

A true Civil War collectible, ideal for serious collectors of U.S. military edged weapons.
