EAGLEHEAD NEW YORK MILITIA OFFICER'S SWORD

Description:
31 inch nearly straight blade. Blade is finished in blue and gold gilt etching and retains about half of those finishes.

Knuckle-bow is in the reverse P pattern and is heavily ornamented with leaf designs. Scabbard is gilded brass and the front side is engraved with florals, an eagle perched on a U.S. Shield and an 8-pointed star. Three carrying rings are present, one on either side of the throat and one at the middle band. This sword is identical to #103 in Peterson's "The American Sword".
