Sword blade length

[thekees]

The headings are:
Korpergr. in M: bodylength in Meter.
Klingenl. in CM: blade lenght in CM.
Ganze lg, total length of the sword in CM.

If you were too long, or shorter than 1.60 m, the option to make a sword at custom length existed. (Extralangen werden auf Wunsch in allen modellen angefertigt)

Great information to know.........Is there also a Height vs Sword/Scabbard Length chart for Luftwaffe Officer Dress Swords too?

[thekees]

MJH, see the picture at post 10, below in the text, the fliegerschwert length to " korpergrosse " are listed.

Thanx for the translation....Are there seperate measurements for Scabbards only?

[thekees]

I owned about 30 sowrds, when correct matched, the length between blade and scabbard length was on average inch or so.
