Description

Nice clean nickel-plated steel blade. "Carl Eickhorn, Solingen" maker marked.

Gilded aluminum fittings with beautiful decorations. A lion's head pommel with red inlaid glass eyes. Black celluloid grip with intact wire wrapping. The front langet bears the national eagle. Comes with a customs officer's portepee. What's absolutely right because this sabre was also worn by them. Original black painted steel scabbard without dents. 

Length: 95 cm.

Signs of wear.
