Imperial German WWI Army NCO Officers Dove's Head Sword & Scabbard GS00304
This set was worn by Officers and is a simplified version of the triple etched Dove Head Sword. It has a very bright steel blade with makers mark on one side of the Ricasso and stamped with "A C" at the top of the mark with two symbols underneath and the letter "S" in the middle. The grip has a shark skin cover over wood and triple braided nickel wire. The "P" guard has plain rain guards (chappes) on each side. The hilt is nickel plated steel with some ware showing. The blade is not plated and still has a great steel shine. No nicks or chips.
The steel scabbard is also nickel plated and does show oxidation and staining. Original German fabric Portepee remains.
Measurements: Overall length - 37 1/2" with a 32 3/8" long blade.
