derekb09 Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 Hi Everyone, I have been advised to repost this request in this section, I am trying to identify the sword in the photographs which is 83.5 cm overall with a 70.0 cm blade. The only marking I can see is "SOLINGEN". Regards, Derek.
peter monahan Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) Nineteenth century, cavalry sabre, possibly German or French would be my guess. Check on this site: http://swordsdb.com/SwordsDB_Cavalry_Sabers.php Edited September 8, 2017 by peter monahan
Bayern Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 The pommel is not French type , the hilt is rare , its like the one of the Polish Navy officers sword 1927 pattern . Solingen various manufacturers provided swords , sabres and bayonets to many countries , in South America and the Balkans , Spain too .
