Honour Sabre of the Awakened Lion

Honour Sabre of the Awakened Lion (Chinese: 醒獅勳刀) was an honour sabre of the Republic of China. It was created in 1935 for awarding already-highly decorated officers who are deserving of more commendation. The honour sabre was the highest honour in the military of the Republic of China. As the order was never awarded since its creation, the honor was abolished by the Executive Yuan on October 19, 2017.[1]
