Both blades looks like removed blueing, (visible on ricasso area) before adding the fantasy etches, possible sharpening was done too, the LSSAH piece had broken tip, as the end of blade have different geometry and is shorter as the other one. About 5mm or more difference, the scabbards are normal S84/98 Weahrmacht pieces delivered one 44.cul, other J.Sch 40 probably, remains of blueing are still visible in frog areas, where the leather covered the metall before damage and rust spures. b.r.Andy
