    Possible the scabbard was shorter and blade was then shortened, so is certainly not period, interesting etching by shooters used long 25cm blade. b.r.Andy
    Lexikon der Wehrmacht:
    Das II. Bataillon (5 .Kompanie) vom Regiment 75 wurde durch das II. Bataillon vom Infanterie-Regiment 14 ebenfalls in Donaueschingen aufgestellt 1935.

      That is a nice Alcoso etch and a neat dedication. Too bad the blade was mangled by shortening it.. that blade damage reduces the value and collectability by a lot.

              Yes the etching is very interesting (even the blade was shortened), possible only one side was done by Alcoso, the location side possible by distributor or elsewhere. I assume the dating is between late 1935 and 1939.b.r.Andy

                Even with the damage you did well Patrick.I questioned the dedication purely because i had never seen one in that style before.

                The more i see the more I like !
