found this on internet thought id share it.

Pommel:

Regardless of manufacturer, the pommel almost always depicts a knight's head. This does not distinguish the sword as uniquely Templar as other fraternal swords such as the Knight's of Columbus depict a knight's head as well.

Grip:
The grip on a Templar sword is sometimes black and sometimes ivory. Quite often it will depict the cross and crown emblem of the order as shown in the diagram to the left. Some swords will display a stylized Christian cross while others a triangle and cross. Frequently Templar swords are engraved with the owner's initials on the grip.

Knuckle Guard:
Templar sword knuckle guards typically depict the cross and crown but many of the M. C. Liley and Co. swords show a knight's head as shown in the diagram to the left.

Blade:
The blade of the Templar sword is particularly ornate and will often depict crusader scenes and lily work. Virtually every Templar sword made in the last century and a half will carry the engraved name of its owner.

Sheath:
A nickel plated sheath indicates the sword belonged to a Sir Knight, while a gold plated one is that of a Preceptor (Canada) or Commander (United States). Like the blade these sheaths are very ornate and the markings will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.

No problem :-) just wouldn't want someone to get it thinking it was Masonic and try to sell as such. Still a very cool sword! Extremely ornate and detailed!

Jun 7th, 2015 at 12:53:09 PM PDT by

yeah ok.
