Hi, Can anyone identify this sword? I thought it was Third Reich period, but i am unsure? Is it Army?
There is no maker.

Thanks!

I would say it's TR period. Looks like a WKC unattributed cavalry model. Nice saber!

I have an original page sent to me by WKC that clearly shows your Lionhead as a Model 20. Then if you look at Jack Angolia's 1988 Sword reference, there's a photo of my Model 20 on page 135. The langet on mine was a generic where as yours is for the Cavalry. I think these are Weimar or early TR.
