Sold for: $450.00

Original era manufacture. Quill back blade with a chrome or nickel finish measuring 31 inches in length. Etched In Treue Fest panels on each side of the blade, lightly sharpened cutting edge, likely done at the time of WWI. Gilded brass folding guard and lionhead pommel with a fishskin wrapped grip and twisted wire binding. The guard basket is a bit out of round from banging around over the years, but is not marred or scratched and has a very nice Bavarian emblem at center. Blue steel scabbard with a brass tip. Not sure if this is the correct scabbard but it fits well.
