I would be inclined to go with what Will noted, as the elements of this hilt correspond loosely with European hussar sabers, but seem more rudimentary.
American sword cutlers were producing swords that were basically copies of European forms in the colonies much as British makers were.
I think a check through Neumann (1973) might be helpful.
