This compact one-decade all-metal rosary is rugged, functional, and portable. It is inspired by the historical vintage service combat rosaries issued by the government to soldiers, sailors, and flying aces during WWI. Now you can carry your WWI Battle Beads combat rosaries in this great rugged smaller format which includes a full-sized Pardon Crucifix, a beautiful Miraculous Medal of Our Blessed Lady, a single Glory Be/Our Father bead, and your 10 Hail Mary beads.
The Miraculous medal is included but you may optionally select up to 5 more medals to customize your rosary. We also offer just the split rings to add your own medal and an optional Memento Mori Skull bead. If you would like to be able to loop this rosary, you can select to add a lobster clasp as shown in the photos.
These rosaries are quite strong, do not tangle, are small and portable, and very easy to carry in your pocket. The nickel-free Silver finished chains are no-rust, no-tangle, and have a great weight and feel. These are NOT the much lower-quality imported copies. We handmake these ourselves right here in our Texas workshop!
The single-decade rosary is quite easy to use. We have a guide for you here if you need help:
Praying your One Decade Pocket Rosary
This rosary comes in a nice small round storage container for storing the rosary, but it also makes a nice gift presentation.

Thank you for shopping and God Bless.
It's absolutely beautiful! I like the smaller size - not clunky and very easy to slip in a pocket. The patina is gorgeous and the packaging was beautiful. Thank you for your dedication to quality and good workmanship.
Great gift and beautiful
The first rosary I received only had nine beads on one decade. I contacted the company and they were eager to make it right, sending the new rosary before they had even received the first one back. I am very pleased with the fixed one, and it even fits well to wear as someone who loses everything.
One of my longest times friends is a devout catholic. We get together have coffee and speak of history and a long friendship. This ww1 rosary was the perfect gift. It is often hard to find areas where we totally agree
Which is a source of joy to our friendship. Our faiths is a point of celebration. Thank you rugged rosaries.
This rosary is wonderfully well-made so strong, especially for a man’s use being active working in the knee for something with great wear and tear. And this rosary absolutely has all those qualities. I have bought several as for gifts and everybody loves and uses them all the time. Unfortunately, this last purchase I made for myself again I have misplaced the rosary in my home and I’ve been praying to Saint Anthony’s help in our Lady of good remedy to hopefully find this join me in prayers for this it would be appreciated.
I had a rugged rosary that I had purchased about five years ago, and I loved it, but unfortunately it recently broke. I purchased a replacement, and it is not nearly as rugged as the previous one. The one I just received feels like chrome plated plastic. I doubt if it will last as long as the last one.
Love these. In fact, bought more for my brother and father in law for Christmas. Thank you!
What an AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL rosary!!!!
