Go to Ohio K of C page.

The emblem of the order incorporates a shield mounted upon a formee cross.  The shield is associated with a midieval knight and the formee cross is an artistic representation of the cross of Christ. Mounted on the shield are three objects:  a fasces standing vertically, crossed behind it an anchor and a dagger or short sword.  The fasces from Roman days is symbolic of authority.   The anchor is the Mariner's symbol for Columbus.  The short sword is the weapon of the knight when engaged in an errand of mercy.
