The blade is acid etched with an American eagle and floral patterns on one side and the letters "U.S." on the other, along with a cannon and shield military pattern. There is a small etching at the ricasso indicating manufacture by "Morgan, Ruhl, & Morris" in Detroit. The clamshell guard is intact and the rest of the grip has mild wear and no damage.
