A German Second War Luftwaffe Officers Sword.
A huge length Luftwaffe officers sword, unusually having an unmarked blade. All the fittings are of the heavy nickel variety and are of the highest quality, all of the four mobile swastikas are intact to both sides of the cross guard and upper pommel. The leather to the upper grip good, slight scuffed at the front and rear but no damage, complete with its grip wire. The leather to the scabbard absolutely perfect without any nicks, two minor indentations to the leather only. Complete with its sword hanger, which we would assume the original owner has slightly modified by stitching a short belt loop with a sprung loaded clip hanger to the body of the originally fitted sword hanger, the leather on both pieces excellent. Lovely age toning to the upper and lower scabbard mounts. Although this is an example without a maker’s mark to the blade it is a most superb example,
excellent condition £500-£700
