That purple bluish patina seen on the upper scabbard fittings appears to be a recent weld ...which may explain the newness of the carrying rings attached to the hanger.

Most of the times when we see this "Oil" shades patina it had an egg treadment.
To much egg and to much time exposed.
On originals done mainly by the lack of patina because the previous owner was a polisher

Hi Gerrit.
Thanks for the opinion. I had seen such a patina on various edged weapons and did not know how this effect was achieved. I had previously bid on this sword, but withdrew the bid. The price has gone up a lot and I think it makes no sense.
What do you think of the hanger? I have not seen such an option, and it is not in the reference books that I have.
Regards Georgi.

the belthanger is just a swordhanger, nothing special and for sure not luftwaffe related, just a generic hanger.
The standard teardrop luftwaffe hangers are the ones that normally go with these swords.
But in wartime a lot was used that wasnt standard, so have no problem with the hanger, it just doesnt add any value to the set other then 50 usd what a standard swords hanger value is.
