George Washington's Battle Sword and Scabbard

Made in Fishkill, NY, by an immigrant cutler named John Bailey, this is the sword George Washington wore as commander of the Continental army. It is a steel hanger sword, 36.25 inches in length, with a green-dyed ivory handle decorated with a silver strip. The scabbard is leather with silver trim. Washington left his nephew the sword, telling him to draw it only "in self-defense or in defense of country and its rights".
