I just picked up this sword, the guy said it came from the Phillipenes. I can't figure out the monogram on the clamshell. It has an engraved blade with the guys name on it on a somewhat fraternal style: "Gus. Lundeen" Any thoughts as to what it might be?

Thanks!
Jerry

It is a fraternal (lodge) sword that has had the grip twist wire replaced with a single strand wire. I am not sure which lodge it is. With the grip wire replacement the value would be between $50.00 to $75.00. Hope this helps.
