Sword 65 (37) Maufactured by the firm of Weyersberg Kirschbaum and Cie, WKC, WK&C, The Trade Mark is a Knight's Helmet over the initials "WKC".
a. Hilt. Cast in brass. The backstrap is attached by a pair of brass rivets. The grip is of wood with a plastic cover and a brass wire wrap.
b. Obverse Langet. A floral wreath superimposed over crossed swords and crossed lances. Whilst accepting that the usual generic insignia on German swords carried by cavalry is a pair of crossed sabres, when lances are also incorporated with the sabres, it is my belief that the sword belonged to a member of a lancer or ulan regiment??
c. Reverse langet. A styled shield within a wreath of laurel (signifying Victory)to the left and oak (signifying Strength) to the right. This particular configeration of foiliage was popular with the later Lufwaffe and appears on anumber of their badges..
d. Pommel. A Jawless lion head.
e. Blade. Plain, plated steel with single full size fullers.
f. Scabbard. Standard black steel scabbard with single ring suspension fitting and rectangular suspension loop to rear.
g. Rarety. Quite scarce.
