- Lot Description
Introducing an extraordinary relic from the fight for American independence, this U.S. Revolutionary War Period Short Sword is a tangible piece of history, echoing the bravery and determination of those who fought for liberty. Crafted with an elegant brass hilt featuring intricate engravings on the pommel, crossguard, and handle, this sword would have been carried by officers or militia members during one of the most pivotal conflicts in history.
The short sword’s design, with its compact size and sturdy blade, made it a versatile weapon in both close-quarters combat and as a ceremonial sidearm. The fine craftsmanship of the hilt, adorned with floral and geometric motifs, speaks to the pride of its bearer, while the sturdy blade remains ready for battle even after centuries of existence. It is extremely rare to find this sword with its original sheath intact!
This sword is a direct link to the Revolutionary War period, offering collectors and history enthusiasts the chance to own a magnificent artifact from America’s fight for freedom. It is possible this sword was made post-war and as such is also listed as possible 19th century. A symbol of strength, patriotism, and the enduring legacy of the American Revolution, this short sword is a prized addition to any collection of militaria or early American history.
Dimensions: Approx. Sword 23"Lx4"W Sheath 19"Lx1.25"W
