A nice clean blade featuring the etching "Meine Ehre heißt Treue" and the maker's mark of "Rich.Abr. Herder, Solingen". Excellent black wooden handle with inlaid SS roundel and national eagle. No damage. Machting nickel fittings. Stamped "I" on the lower crossguard.
Original black anodized scabbard with nickel fittings. All screws are in place and unopened. A small dent in the ball. Comes with the original vertical leather hanger. Soft black leather hanger. "A" (Assmann) and "DRGM" marked snap clip. Fully working. We did not check the inside of the hanger for a SS mark (so as not to damage the leather).
