    Sword 185 (165) The maufacturer of this very high quality sword is not known as there are no markings on the blade. Using the positions of the securing holes on the obverse langet and the blade dedication, it is my opinion that a pair of crossed cannon has been removed fron the langet. I initially considdered a Guard Star but given the location of the upper pair of holes, I am now of the opinion that upper rays of a star would not fit the langet??

    a. Hilt. Cast in brass. The backstrap is attached using a pair of brass rivets. The grip is of wood with a shagreen cover and a brass wire wrap.
    b. Obverse Langet. The langet is an over size plain outlined shield with a random scroll like pattern and perferations consistent with the positioning of a pair of crossed cannon.
    c. Reverse langet. The langet is an over size plain outlined shield with a full wreath of laurel, signifying "Victory", encopassing a shield bearing a monogram.
    d. Pommel. A jawless lion head.
    e. Blade. Etched and dedicated plated steel with pipe or quill spine. Presented to "Hauptmann (Captain) Wolff" of the 11th Artillery Regiment
    f. Scabbard. Standard black steel scabbard with single ring suspension fitting but without rectangular suspension loop to rear.
    g. Rarety. Rare.

    Hi SK, Thank you for your coments and likes!! Yes, I am inclined to agree, Although I find some of the inscriptions a bit awkward to read, I do like them. I am a real sucker for etched swords and find it very hard to resist the temptation to buy whatever I can afford. Oh to have a lot of money!!

    Cheers and happy hunting Michael R
