WWII US Horstmann Philadelphia military sword & scabbard Etched blade beautiful!! Antique sword in the scabbard/sheath. Marked Horstmann Corporation, Philadelphia (with a symbol underneath). The BLADE IS 30″ LONG and 7/8″ wide nearest the handle. It comes with a 31 long scabbard and has beautifully etched blade. The blade is marked US on side, and under an American Eagle on the other side, marked E PLURUBUS UNUM. The handle looks very elaborate and has a black grip. There are 2 loops attached to the sheath. So that it will hang on a belt. NOTE: there is one rough spot near the tip of the scabbard (see photo it has a little rust or something developing). Naturally, there are signs from use (minor scratches), and it likely will need a good polishing to remove the very faint tarnishing. That’s all the history that I know about this piece. It is from a smoke-free home. I know that often these swords have someone’s name on them but I cannot find one.
