I think it's maybe WW1 Prussian. Wilhelm II eagle guard.
As I am no expert on these I could possibly be incorrect though.
All the best

I think it's a m89 infantry sword.
I can't place the sword knot.

Well all I can say is it is produced by WKC. This looks like it could be Prussian
Prussian or from Wurttemburg.
The colors and pattern of the sword knot would
tell us a lot but I can not find my color chart.

No thing wrong with thise one, exept; (!!) it should sit the other way in the scabbard!The ring of the scabbard should face the back side of the sword!!!

Another pet peave for some of us!
It's the Prussian Infantry Officer's Degen (IOD) Model of 1889, but what is not clear in the images is if it has a grip cipher. Regards, FP
