Description
This piece which was made by the firm of P.Fichte must have been custom done for some individual as it is silver proofed and hallmarked on the cross guards. The blade, which has a standard hunting scene, has a nice dark gray burnishing. The grip, which is wood, has a very forestry-type look, being chiseled out. The pommel, which is a falcon’s head, is also 800 proofed. The scabbard, whose body shell is green leather much like a hunting piece, has extremely fine 800 proof fittings which are perfect and compression fitted to the piece. Definitely done for an individual vs. mass production.
