Hi,

does one know if this Portepee is a good one? The is very well made, but I have none to compare.

Thanks for help!

These are thought to be post war made. They popped up a lot a few years ago, if you do a search you'll find several posts on the forum about them.

Some say this type is good and some say bad. The construction is nice. I have one that came in on a NCO sword but it didn't look like it had been there long plus the sword was from a collector not the woodwork.

I sold the sword and threw the knot aside because there is doubt.

I am not a fan of these. They started showing up in the late 1970s and every one was mint.

thanks for your comments!
I will pass on it, the construction looks very promising to me, but without solid provenance it is better to pass...

1. this is not the knot model for the SS

and 2. IMO new made....
