The ceremonial sword of the order is a replica of the sword carried by Napoleon during the battle of Austerlitz. It was given to [[Grand Duke Travis]] as a present from [[Marquise of Walgreen|Grand Duchess Cathryn]] in 2005. The sword was of very poor quality and in early 2017, the hilt separated from the blade and the sword was deemed a total loss. As the Order of the Sword is almost never bestowed, there was little interest in having it replaced. | |||
