This compact all-metal rosary is rugged, functional, and portable. It has a meaningful history, as it is a replica of the service combat rosaries issued by the government to soldiers, sailors, and flying aces during WWI. The WWI Battle Beads rosaries are the closest replica available to the vintage antique service combat rosaries from 1916!

These rosaries are quite strong, small and portable, and very easy to carry in your pocket. The chains are beautiful nickel-free silver patina finish over brass which makes them weighty and very comfortable in your hands.

The Our Father beads are slightly larger to aid in meditative prayer. You can feel where you are as you move through prayers and at 21" long, they are wearable but still bunch up small enough to carry in your pocket. This version was made as a Divine Mercy Chaplet with a Divine Mercy centerpiece medallion. You can find the Divine Mercy Chaplet prayers here: https://help.ruggedrosaries.com/article/69-dm-prayers

Although the WWI Battle Beads Rosary is rugged enough to carry in your pocket, we do include a small round tin for portability and storage.

As with all Rugged Rosaries, you may add optional medals. We recommend only adding up to 4. Some of our photos show an optional medal attached.

You can rest assured you are getting the highest quality and best workmanship. We have been creating these in our own studio since 2012.

Thank you for shopping and God bless.

Fantastic

Very well made and certainly meant for everyday carry. It stays with me always.

Rugged Indeed

This is a lovely Rosary and indeed seems rugged (strong). I got mine with an extra St. Benedict Medal, which they loop around the small beads to the side of the Miraculous Medal. FYI the Rosary is long enough to wear as a necklace if you so choose. God Bless!

A CUT ABOVE

I have purchased many of the WWII Battle Beads Rosaries. They make great gifts. I especially like the weight and feel of the rosary while using it in prayer. Ordering was simple, quick and the response was excellent. Thanks to Rugged Rosaries for great service and quality products!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a thoughtful and helpful review. We appreciate your business and support!

Rugged Rosary

Very nice rosary. One that will not break apart in my pocket that I carry with me in pouch every day.

Great Rosaries.

I really like the Rosaries. Its nice to find well built men's Rosaries like yours. I will promote them to others.

Perfect

I ordered two rosaries. I was tired of the old style rosaries always coming apart. I absolutely love the colors, the quality and yes the rugged aspect of the rosaries.
As a bus9ness owner and avid chaplet and rosary person I need a rosary that can take some heavy usage. The rip cord rosary was a little larger than expected but I love it and my WW1 rosary. Thank you for making such a great product for strong catholic men who live rugged lives.

Recommending it to all Brother Knights of Columbus!

I’m going to suggest to our Council that we ‘upgrade’ from the plastic Rosary given to new Knights, to yours! A quality product designed to last a lifetime.
