look, can you get dimensions and specifications for the thing?
if you CAN, then I might be able to look into... less commercial options.

believe it or not, that is what the "military designation" of the standard BOOT was!
sounds like what babies USED to wear, when i was a child 50+ years ago.

that would be good.
please use calipers/micrometer to get accurate thicknesses.
draw a paper template, too.
and what is the hilt made of? turned wood or stacked leather washers?

one of the problems with dressing up as a Reb is the fact that they really didn't have much uniformity of gear.

most of them were in homespun and butternut, and not at all a "uniform" as such - just (hopefully) sturdy clothes with a couple of deep pockets for ammo and sundries.

as best i remember it (i held it in my hand OVER 15 YEARS ago!), it had WOODEN grips.
his was "locally procured", read: blacksmith made. only part, maybe half, of the scabbard was intact.

feh. scabbards are dead easy to make. the big mistake most folks make is using wood that is too hard.
