SS NCO Degan w Troddle

German WWII > Edged Weapons > Swords > SS Swords

Here's a really nice degan. The blade on this one has that matte finish you want to see with no sharpening. The tip is perfect there is some spotting. The 33.5" blade rates Exc+. The original buffer pad remains intact. The black enamel dent-free painted 34" scabbard is in great shape. The paint coverage remains better than 98%. The upper SS proofed scabbard fitting has nicely patinaed, remaining secured with two unturned dome head screws. There are a couple scuffs to the paint but that's it. The plated hilt has even patina and the plating is better than 98%. The grip is in fine shape with no chips or splits. The cast ferrule is nicely detailed with handwork throughout. The pommel nut has the correct SS cast runes with burnsh in place. Included is that elater style SS NCO troddle. Overall an outstanding example!
