      The inscription is "Sempre e mai" in reverse. "Forever and ever". Possibly fraternity, but occult is also possible.

      Thanks I am thinking along those lines as well. I am hoping someone will recognize it. It is ceremonial in appearance, but usable as well. scabbard probably not original.
