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

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.

It was handed down and I really didn't know much about it. |
