Paul Weyersberg Dove Head Army Sword

German WWII > Edged Weapons > Swords > Army Swords

Here's a nice early sword with a mismatched scabbard. The 29" blade on this one rates an Exc. There are age spots and it's been retipped at some point. This is nicely maker marked and can be found in Angolia's sword reference pg 130. The buffer pad is lost to time. The Imperial era plated scabbard is aged with oxidation. This would really look great were someone to repaint it black. It fits fine.It's undented. The throat is secured by two unturned dome head screws. The heavy solid brass hilt and P-guard are beautifully detailed and look at all that hand enhancing!! The languet features an open winged political style eagle. The black celluloid grip has 2 large cracks. at the topwhere the P-guard meets the pommel. The brass triple wire wrap is nice and tight. A bargain.
