This early nineteenth-century sword features a straight steel blade with faint acid etching. The hilt is composed of a cast brass eagle-head pommel and a ribbed bone grip. The blade shows dark grey patination and minor wear. Carried during the War of 1812 and potentially used through the Civil War, this sword is a classic American officer's weapon. Eagle-head swords symbolized the independence and military pride of the young republic. The brass knuckle guard features a simple D-loop design with cast geometric patterns. The sword is offered without its original scabbard.
