Can anyone identify this sword/saber? It has "US" on one side and "E pluribus unum" on the other.

US Army Officer's Saber is my guess.

ETA The US is different on the ones I looked up.

It looks like the M1902 with some elaborate etching.

Thanks, that gives me a good place to start looking.

It looks just like an army officers saber to me.  They still make them, and they are still part of an officer's dress uniform (although very rarely worn).  I wouldn't be surprised if the etching design had changed a little over time.  Yours does look a little older.

Army saber


I believe it's from the 1930s or 40s. It was handed down and I really didn't know much about it.
