The Masonic Sword is inspired by the symbolism of the famous esoteric brotherhood that officially emerged in the western world in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, where the investiture of new brothers was also based on the rituals of Medieval Chivalry. The Masonic Sword has an oval section steel blade. The hilt is made of cast gold-plated metal with silver-plated metal inserts depicting symbols of Masonic tradition. The handle is lined in red velvet with gilded metal trim. The disc-shaped pommel is made of the same material and encloses a five-pointed star intertwined with a G.
