Title Senior NCO's sawback Fire Brigade sidearm

Period c 1933-45

This nice example, maker marked 'J.A.HENCKELS//ZWILLINGSWERK', has its original Fire Brigade portepee with a leather strap, an original dress leather frog and a professionally repainted steel scabbard. Most importantly, it has the saw tooth back, something of a rarity these days.

The blade and hilt have a nickel silver finish, which is virtually intact. The grips are black bakelite.

The sabre arrived perfectly. Magnificent piece.

Having received the beautiful medal that has been the subject of many recent phone calls, I am absolutely delighted with it. More importantly, the research you provided into the military backgrounds of all those involved made it all the more poignant. Thank you for your highly professional and friendly help and advice throughout the transaction.
