Bow-tie shaped brass cross guard, 2 1/2" long and 1" wide, with a steel collar and one piece wooden finger grooved handle. Two brass grip rivets, with three silver rivets on left side, center marked "36". Butt of handle marked "A.S.P." twice, around hole. One piece leather sheath, with belt loop on left.
