Cast copper alloy miniature sword.The sword is flat, undecorated and made from one piece of copper alloy. The blade is slender, elongated and has a rounded tip. The handle is straight, flat, and appears to have some metal untrimmed on the right hand side as the handle is nearly in line with the blade edge. There are two holes along the blade. One is located in the centre at the tip end of the blade, and is neat and appears to be a rivet hole. The other hole is near the handle and is off-centred and looks more like damage.
