Traditionally, a Marine is presented with the NCO sword after obtaining the first Non- Commissioned Officer rank of Corporal. A Corporal has also earned the right to wear "blood stripes" on the dress blues uniform. Obtaining the rank of Corporal is an outstanding accomplishment deserving of an outstanding sword.

Laser Etching the Marine NCO Sword: (19 characters max.)
Optional laser etching is available for an additional $25. The Marine NCO Sword etch will be placed on the back side of the blade in the "etch box". The text historically reads from "tip-to-grip" so that it matches the "United States Marines" in the etch design. Font size is about 24. We use the Engraver's Old English font only. Additional characters are possible; please call if you need additional lettering. Important: Etched swords are non returnable, for additional details and exceptions, see our return policy. Please note that if you change or cancel your order after submitting, you must receive written confirmation from us that we have received the change and are able to accept it (production may already be complete).
