Hello Pvon
Congrats, that's a beauty !
You are right, it has all the "symptoms" of a Cavalry imperial german saber : )
Oak leaves with holes one the D guard, that is very unusual, a keeper indeed ! Great catch !

Hello Kurt

Glad to see you post on this sword! Nice to see someone that knows something nice!

I was starting to wonder if it would be passed by!

Not all that easy to run across!

If it could only speak!

What do you collect?

Again thanks for stopping by on this post!

I agree with Kurt a work of art all the way around a true beauty outstanding D guard and blade cheers, Ryan

A fine Imperial sword, PVON!
Is there a maker mark to be found on the blade?

Best regards,

Herman

looks like a Pack- ohliger to me.

Hello,

I observed that oak leaves are found quite often on the D-guard of Imperial swords.
With holes, they are more rare indeed...

Best regards,
