Eickhorn-Solingen Heer Sword?

[theerick45]

About six months ago I found this sword in its sheath in a shed while moving. While my research has given me some idea as to what the model and value would be for this sword, I haven't had any luck pinpointing the exact model, I hope somebody here can help?





Hopefully all will go well with the images, and I can take more if necessary.
