29.5" quill back spear point single edged blade, 1.1" wide at ricasso. Overall length 35.5". 6" hilt with cast brass guard and large, spread-winged Eagle pommel cap. Grooved wooden grip covered in shagreen with 13 wraps of twisted wire. Blade unmarked as to maker or retailers, etched with flowing foliate and martial themes. The sword is accompanied by a brass mounted, bottom seamed leather scabbard. Although unmarked the sword is definitely an import, likely by Clauberg, based upon the style of eagle on the pommel cap. A very nice example of a rare non-standard, higher end 1850 Foot Officer's Sword.
