Do you think there is anything polished or something?
Scabbard looks like, buut blade seems to be untouched.
What do you think it is worth?
Around $3500 - $4000. you can`t go by dealer prices, the market is slow.
Jo78,
It is a beautiful Teno hewer in a great condition and the blade seems untouched and all original, well worth $ 4000 in my opinion.
nicest I've seen for a while-and a good buy at that-well done

Polished??? There is the (during producing) artificially applied burnishing around the eagle and the pommel cog-wheel and also in certain recesses, for sure not polished. The scabbard fittings did come in this bright look.
So, as far I can see from the pics, all is as it should be.
Also to mention that the hanger is obviously one of the few original ones.
Regards,
thanks for your opinions...
The Hewer arrived and here are some new pictures...
the etched number on the blade...
...matching scabbard number...
Very nice-and good to see the gloves in use, its toooo easy to forget the damage fingers do!

Great hewer, Herr Casberg was a great designer.
Now it's time to look for a right knot
