This is an outstanding, high ranking named sword. Its top of the LINE, across the board, the finest Masonic sword i\'ve ever run across. Its also named to a Colonel, I\'ve done some research and found the gentleman fairly easily and I believe he was a Lt. Colonel in the 113th Illinois Infantry. Lets start out with the handle,, HIGHLY ornate, the handle does not appear to be cellulose but bone (cow bone that is, anything else would be bad) and expertly \"scrimshawed\" with some mild yellowing and a few light age cracks that naturally occurs sometimes with bone. It has a swiveling clamshell guard that folds for ease in wearing, has sterling lettering OAM, beautiful. The clamshell swings freely without issue. The blade is very nice, gold gilted has some spotsĀ of patina, no staining, rust, pitting present. THe pictures make it seem like the blade is darker than it is, the blade is bright, thats mostly reflection from the pictures and sky. On one side, it says \"Knights of Honor\", on reverse side a presentation to Colonel Geo R Clarke URKK Ass\'t Adj\'t Gen Cleveland Ohio. Sword was made by MC Lilly. The scabbard is gold colored, HIGHLY ornate, one small dent on the presentation part, and a few \"line\" dents from doors on the lower portion, not bad at all. no rust, pitting cracks, peeling etc. On the scabbard it says Colonel Geo R Clarke, Cleveland Ohio. Again I will say, far and away the FINEST sword i\'ve ever seen and it is a pleasure to offer it to you.
