SS Officer Degen

Gents,

 

I thought I would show an SS Officer Sword (Degen) that I picked up from the family of a vet. It is an untouched, and uncleaned, regulation SS sword made by Peter Daniel Krebs in Solingen. This sword was brought back by the WWII US soldier in 1945 and had been in the local area family since that time.

 

I thought I would show it here as it is a "one-looker" original sword with provenance.

Many thanks for the kudos gents. It is always nice to find these things still in the hands of the veteran's families. Particularly when you can buy them in un-messed with condition. The more originals you see the better prepared you are to determine the fakes. This is just the way the sword came to me with the original SS Offizier Portepee still in place.
