To help lock in the concept, although I�ve posted these particular examples before, I think that they are illustrative of officer�s model swords for senior grade NCO�s (Unteroffizier mit Portepee). The brass hilted earlier prewar example Infanterieoffizierdegen (M1889) to the right is unit marked to a Garde regiment. The later wartime steel hilted �Kriegsmodell� M 1889 to the left is also unit marked. And posted below them is the Imperial era inspection/acceptance stamp on the pommel cap of the Kriegsmodell.
