Vintage 1970's Swank sword tie bar

1970's Swank sword tie bar This is fashion! The tie clip is such an underutilized accessory. They really don't make them like this anymore. I've used tie clips and bars for years and I've never seen one that holds the whole tie in place from the front. Most are just the alligator clip that is easy, but has a tendency to slide out of place. This is an excellent vintage piece.
