Hi Glen,
While I agree with avoiding the latest fashion of looking for Masonic conspiracies every where, I have learned to listen very carefully to Jim's hunches. On Mark Cloke's site (
http://www.oldswords.com/resources/articles.php ) he has a PDF of John Hamilton's article
Swords of the Masonic Orders . There does appear to be a number of five and seven ball hilts associated with the Masons.
Nothing conclusive but, where there is smoke there often is fire.
All the Best
Jeff
