This is a piece I recently picked up at an American auction. It is the so-called 'alter Art' or old style Degen in use prior to the intro of the IOD89.
It is in beautiful conditon and the leather work on the scabbard is unmarked. It came without a portepee but I have put one on for show.
The ferrule and the top chape of the scabbard have the number '36' stamped, and it is maker maked 'W K & C.'
