One of the rarest edged weapons of the Luftwaffe series. The large 41 cm mate finished blade on this one looks excellent. The stamped Alcoso Solingen” maker mark is nicely executed. The blade is nicely grained lengthwise, as it should be. It has a perfect tip and fit. This one rates very good. It shows the common scratching and runner rest marks. The sheet metal based black anodized scabbard looks wonderful. A nice dark finish. It has one pressure mark to the obverse and the odd scratch throughout. Both throat retaining screw remain intact. The hilt is made of brass. It has two expertly fit wood grip plates, retained by two screws.
