The U.S. Civil War was fought between the years of 1861 and 1865 between the U.S. Army and the Confederate States of America Army. During the early periods of the war, many swords and large knives were used in combat. The Union Army had far better resources so they possessed tens of thousands of newly manufactured swords while the Confederate Army was forced to use older revolutionary swords or crudely made newer swords. BUDK has a large selection of civil war replica swords which are often used in reenactments.
General Robert E. Lee's SwordConfederate General Robert E. Lee's sword was returned to Appomattox, Va., the place where he surrendered in May of 2011. One side of his sword is enscribed "Gen. Robert E. Lee CSA from a Marylander 1863;" and on the other side it says "Aide toi dieu l'aidera" which translates "Help yourself and God will help you." |

Civil War MoneyThe perfect addition to your new Civil War Saber set is the Northern and Southern States paper money. These reproduction bills were made to look identical to the money issued by each state during the Civil War. This paper money would look great in a frame next to your sword on the wall. |
