The sword has a fine diamond shaped blade. The blade has a needle point and is approximately 30-inches long. The cane shaft is fitted with a metal receptacle so that the cane slides elegantly to rest.

Condition: Good to very good. Wood with nicks and mars overall. Some tarnish to metal. Blade with mottled gray patina overall.
