Thx for the nice pics Ivan!
It was my pleasure helping you to add another Pack to your collection.
Winning the German auction was a nice thing, this degen is of a very high building quality and having the Original portepee/knot still on it is amazing, considering these imperial degens are over 125 years old.
The etch itself is hard to get on pics but its a lovely sharp one.
I also like to typical Pack dots pattern on the hand protector, which is only used on Packs "Eisenbahn und Verkehrs- Beambten Degen"
I can add a few pics to this post which show the high detailed sword and its superb building quality
Regards,

I love seeing stuff like this that is hard to find and beautiful
I did some research before i started bidding on this degen, and sofar I only found 1 more, which had an unmarked blade and lacked the nice dots pattern and crisp detailed features like this one!
When i saw the Pack logo Ivan poped up in mind.
For sure this is a very rare beauty, and its now in the right collection!
