This 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. Now with slightly larger Our Father beads, the WWI Battle Beads® rosaries are the closest replica available to the vintage antique service combat rosaries from 1916!

These rosaries are quite strong, do not tangle, are small and portable, and very easy to carry in your pocket. The chains are brass with silver patina which do not rust, and have a nice weight to them. The crucifix from Italy is a traditional 3 nail style.

The Our Father beads are slightly larger to aid in meditative prayer.  You can feel where you are as you move through prayers. This version is for the serious Prayer Warrior at 20 decades and 60 inches long but still bunches up small enough to carry in your pocket with the included zippered pouch. 

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.

Thank you for shopping and God Bless.

Wonderfully extremely strong, well-made, rosary.

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.

Disappointed with quality

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.

Always above and beyond

This is the 5th rosary I’ve gotten from this company. I wear it everyday as a reminder and because of that it wears down quickly. It took almost 2 years for it to break but I replaced it quickly. I reached out to ask (after I had already ordered) about a stainless steel version to resist wear and tear.
Not only did they replace as much as possible with stainless steel but did it without extra cost and without me even mentioning I had a pending order. They’ve always a great company full of amazing personnel. I recommend this company on business practices alone. The fact that their products are EXACTLY what they say they are is a bonus. Always trust and buy from this company if you get the chance.

Perfect.

I love the memento Mori rosary: its size is perfect for fitting my Catholic company custom rosary pouch and the skull bead helps to focus on mortality.

Great Rosaries and Customer Service

Well made! You can't go wrong with a Rugged Rosary. This was my second, but not my last order! My dad was a Marine in Vietnam and passed away from Agent Orange poisoning. I feel connected to him and the other veteran heroes when they use a ball and chain military-style Rosary. God bless your work!
