I'm gaining an interest in German Imperial Swords (and sabres). I noticed that many have the "P" guard but once in a while I find one with a "D" guard. For example, a local antique store has a rather plain NCO sabre with a "P" guard and a Bavarian Officer's Lionhead sabre with a "D" guard.
Is there a reason why some have "P" guards and some have "D" guards or was it simply buyer's preference?
If you have any ideas, please respond to the thread.
