Early US Militia Staff Officer Sword

Hi Jim,
I too like the exchange of ideas here on the forum. Nor did I mean anything other than I didn't think it was Masonic, just a sword with their markings? Seems like every time thinks they know something, someone shows up with the exception. I have never owned an old Mameluke just 1950's on.I screwed up once and led a late 19th century one get away and still regret it. For sure is a militia sword as in the early 1800's we never had a large standing army, just militias. Maybe someone else will chime in.
Yours,
Terry
