Title Officer's cavalry sabre, model 1904
Nationality Austrian
Period c 1914
Sold

This example has no maker's mark, but is a good clean pipe-back blade with a fine silver nickel finish, which, together with the hilt, is virtually 100% intact. There is some minor pickling of the plating to the scabbard. The knot is that of a Honved cavalry officer (Hungarian army) for the time of Kaiser Carl, 1917-18.

testimonials

Thanks very much for the bayonet. I am very happy, I think your photos of your items are great because nothing is hidden and you can clearly see them. (Unlike some other dealers.) Everything was as you describe, I will be keeping a eye on your site for any further bayonets for my collection.

The painting of Alexander Pock is restored and meanwhile at his new owner, who is very content.

Thank you for your assistance to get it to Germany.
