The blade is without motto but shows the RZM maker's mark "M7/51" for Anton Wingen Jr. Dated "39". blade shows minor tarnishing with some signs of use.
Black bakelite grip with clean crisp diamond scales with inlaid HJ diamond. Nickel finish on crossguard shows very minor pitting but otherwise the finish is clean.
Original black-finished steel scabbard with moderate paint loss and patina. No dents.
The leather hanger is in place showing some age and paint loss to the button but overall very nice.
