I think it's a knapsack hook

Very similar too a Knapsack hook but do not think this went on a civil war military knapsack but something else like a pouch or something in that nature or another form of knapsack that was not issued too most regiments or maybe civilian use. Good luck with it.

Photo below is typical cw knapsack hooks you find..

I think it might be a hook from a sword belt like the one to the far right, looks pretty similar.

I think you are exactly right this is the same type hook on Sword Belt ! Knew i had seen this style hook before but could not recall but now looking @ the photo that could be it!
