Title Prussian trooper's sabre, 1852 model
Nationality German
Period 1885
Sold

Extremely nice example of late production M52 pipe-back sabre. Extensively marked to guard, maker marked Hermes of Solingen. Bulk of original factory finish to hilt and blade and extensive original blueing to scabbard. Superb leather grip. Perhaps the nicest example of one of these that I've ever seen.

It got here this morning, presumably delayed by the holidays. It is perfect, indeed better than I was expecting.

I am more and more pleased with the sword, and am wondering whether to do an article on it...
