The Cutlass pistol is without visible maker markings, but the number "874" is stamped near the trigger. Most likely, it is a Morrill, Mosman and Blair. The overall length is 13 1/2 inches and the blade mounted on the underside of the barrel is 8 3/4 inches long. A fixed notch rear sight is mounted on the frame and the barrel has a brass blade front sight that has been nearly ground flush to the barrel. The barrel has rifling. Fitted with a one-piece grip.

About good as restored (grip). The pistol has a mottled gray patina with some scattered minor pitting. The blade has been sharpened. The modern replacement grip is very good with the slightest handling marks. Mechanically very good.
