{"product_id":"germany-heer-an-officers-dress-sabre-g53678rl2","title":"Germany, Heer. An Officer’s Dress Sabre","description":"(Heer Säbel für Offiziere). An extremely well-preserved Heer Officer’s dress sabre, measuring 98 cm in total length when inserted into the scabbard. It features an 84.5 cm-long, nickel-plated, magnetic steel blade with a gentle curvature, sharpened tip, unspoiled edges, and with fullers running approximately two-thirds of the length of each side. It sits securely within a one-piece gilded alloy hilt, with the seam covered by an intact brown leather buffer pad. The hilt features a hand guard and raised Wehrmacht eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika on the obverse crossguard. The handle grip is composed of a single piece of ribbed black celluloid, with the ribbing retaining a period original twisted and rolled bronze wire cord. It completes with a pommel consisting of a detailed lion’s head, inset with red cut glass eyes. Wrapped around the hilt is a matching portepee, consisting of a stylized silver aluminum wire acorn suspended from a black leather strap. The sabre is accompanied by its original scabbard, constructed of a black painted magnetic metal shaft. The upper quarter of the shaft has an integral loop for the accommodation of a hanger, while the throat retains a spring catch to firmly hold the sabre in place during storage. Demonstrating only minor, age-appropriate wear to the finish, it remains in an extremely fine condition.\n\n","brand":"eMedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46136173232405,"sku":"G53678.RL2","price":1210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/9105\/2053\/files\/l22_mnc2754_693_1_1.jpg?v=1692913663","url":"https:\/\/www.emedals.com\/products\/germany-heer-an-officers-dress-sabre-g53678rl2","provider":"eMedals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
