Original Imperial German Pre-WWI Court Degen Sword with Triple-Etched Blade & Scabbard by Samuel Hoppe of Solingen
In stock
-
Original Item. Only One Available. This is a rather lovely Imperial German officer’s court sword manufactured by Samuel Hoppe, a renowned 19th-century sword cutler based in Solingen, Germany. The ricasso is stamped with a Beehive logo, often attributed to Hoppe.
The sword bears a triple-etched 32 ¾” blade in good overall condition. The heavy cleaning of the blade has worn away much of the etching, with some scattered oxidation in spots across. The brass hilt retains the wire-wrapped grip in good complete shape. The overall length is 38 ⅝”.
The steel scabbard has a single hanging ring, as the second fitting was for a hook on the hanger. It retains the original finish well with some decorative brass fittings. There is some minor denting and oxidation pitting.
An outstanding but well-used German court sword by a well-known Solingen maker, ready for further research and display.
Specifications:
Blade Length: 32 3/4”
Overall Length: 38 5/8”
