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.

Incredibly, I received your shipment today. Super fast delivery, I was expecting it on Saturday. The helmet was, as you said, 100%. The side cap is excellent also...
