I’m looking for information on this sword or anyone who can help me find out how old it is, what year it was originally made

It says West Point. The same style was used for many many years. Is there a name etched on the blade?

It appears to be a Model 1922 most likely a private purchase sword.

It is a US Military Academy (West Point) cadet sword.

They are carried by cadet officers for ceremonial use (parade, inspections...)

The orientation of the crest makes it post 1923.

H& H was established in 1926, so we can skip a few more years forward.

While it may have been privately purchased-- these were only retailed through the Cadet Store, so it went through a cadet, graduate or faculty member first.

A search of H & H may yield more precise dating.
