Description
Remarkable Revolutionary War era hanger stands as a specimen of 18th century infantry sidearms, radiating the martial soul of a hard fought era through its rugged yet regal construction. The shortened blade, likely modified during its period of service for closer quarters utility, displays a rich, mellowed patina alongside vivid foliate and geometric etchings that remain hauntingly legible despite honest wear. Steel core transitions into a solid hilt featuring a sophisticated multi bar brass guard, exhibiting a deep, uncleaned oxidation that speaks to its undisturbed provenance. The grip, carved wood with deep, ergonomic ribbing, remains solid, terminating in a magnificent cast brass lion’s head pommel that stares with stoic intensity. The ferocity of the leonine features provides a superb aesthetic counterpoint to the utilitarian nature of the shortened blade. The sword’s survival offers a rare, visceral connection to the tactical realities of colonial era warfare. It is an poignant artifact for the discerning collector, representing a magnificent marriage of artistic flourish and lethal functionality that defines the era's classic military aesthetic. Full Length 29 Inches Blade Length 22 Inches. Full length inches, blade length inches.
