You probably also heard it before: "the favorite sword of SS-officers was the Eickhorn Prinz Eugen pattern". Some dealers even use this as a sales argument for selling this type of sword...

But is there any evidence to proof this theory?

Just a period photo with SS-officers wearing a Prinz Eugen is a bid meager, no?

Why would SS-officers even carry a Heer sword, they had their own SS-swords right?

Let me know what you think?

Best regards,

Herman
