Original period manufacture. Mounted pattern sword made by WKC with an etched blade measuring 31 inches in length. The blade runs fairly straight and true with an even gray patina finish, no pitting or nicks in the edge. Simple brass P-guard, fish skin wrapped grip, once bound with triple strand wire, now missing one strand. The only issue to report beyond the missing scabbard, is that the guard is a bit loose. Stamped into the guard is the number or date 1920. Possibly indicating the swords reuse by the post WWI German Police or Reichsheer. Similar 1920 dates can be seen on 98/05 bayonets and on the receivers of WWI issue P08 Lugers which were issued to those formations after the 1918 Armistice.
