Did you ever try and take a picture of a sword Mike . Here are a few shots of one of them in sections . I had a guy tell me once that he thought they were older than WW11 . Can you tell me anything about their age by the stamp mark ?

these are american post ww1 decorative swords, they never saw combat and were only used for special occasions, probably partially silver as meyer made alot of silver badges during ww2

Thanks Mike , I Knew they were not used in combat , always considered them a parade sword , as you say worn on special occasions . Do you have any idea as to their value ?

Hi I am surprised to see a post regarding swords here. We have had a Masonic Lodge and an Odd Fellows ceremonial uniform swords on eBay. They may both be sold by now. RED M.
