RD526.)IMPERIAL GERMAN HUNTING CUTLASS: a fantastic old copy that I really thought was genuine when I first examined it. It's so good that I needed to consult a few others before committing. This one is so good that you'd easily consider it to be genuine period. 22" long so it's very much like a short sword, a true cutlass. Has smooth natural steel blade that's unadorned. Faux bone grip that appears to be genuine, perfectly fashioned. Brass clamshell guard with cross-guard adorned with big game hooves. Brass pommel with decorative finial. Genuine dark brown leather scabbard with intact stitching on back, strong and robust. Brass tip and throat with oak leaf stud for leather frog. Outstanding quality and shows lots of convincing age.
