Correction: The markings on the ricasso seem to be Czechoslovakian (lion rather than Imperial double eagle) instead of Austro-Hungarian, although the sword itself is likely older than that.

Nice Video. I really like the info graphics! I myself have a Baden IOS 1856, which is based on the Austrian M1850 IOS, but with a more curvy knuckle bow. One of my favourites!

I have an austrian saber to. I would like to send you pictures for identification. It is 1861 model, I think, and it has a nice scabbard, fish skin on the handel. I hope you can help me with the identification, maybe with value to. Thank You

Die Abnahme ist falsch aufgeschlüsselt, der erste Teil steht immer für den Abnahmeort (Wn = Wien z.B.). Abnahme und Truppenstempel wurden nicht vermischt. Bei österreichischen Blankwaffen gab es keinen Abnahmeort mit S, die Abnahme ist auch nicht österreichisch sondern aus der Tschechoslowakei. Der Mittelteil ist kein Doppeladler sondern der Tschechische Löwe. Vorschriftmäßig sollten alle Mannschaftssäbel ein mit Leder bezogenes Griffholz haben, Rochenhaut wurde bei privat beschafften Stücken verwenden. Dann sollte das Stück aber auch keine Abnahme aufweisen. Nachdem die Tschechoslowakei 1906 noch nicht bestand gibt mir der Abnahmestempel irgendwie Rätsel auf, aber irgendeine Erklärung wird sich sicher finden. Ich gehe mal von einer Nachkriegsverwendung aus, in welcher Form auch immer. Trotzdem ein hübsches Stück und gut gemachtes Video!

Danke für die Hinweise, freue mich über deine Kommentare! Bei dem Adler hab ich tatsächlich nicht so genau hingeschaut - hab angenommen dass der ungenau oder einfach doppelt geprägt ist. Das mit dem Abnahmeort links des Mittelteils ist mir bekannt, das mit der Armeeschießschule war meine eheste Vermutung. Ich werd dazu einfach einen Kommentar dazu schreiben und oben anpinnen.

There are plenty of antique swords like that around! Check out local websites for small ads, antique shops, or look for antiques dealers' websites! :) Also check Facebook groups like "International Antique Sword Collectors" or "Military and Classical Sabre" for more information if you're on Facebook.

Fantastic overview, Peter! How long is the grip? It looks quite roomy compared to the P1796 grip.
@historyandsabre4 жыл бұрын
@@victoriansword Thank you! Yes, given that it's a late 19th century sword, the grip is indeed longer than that of the 1796. It's 11.5cm vs 9.5cm!

Wow, it is a very light sword. What is the full length? 'Sad hema noises of guy with "too light for our tournament 800 gram saber while we need at least 850" :)'
@historyandsabre4 жыл бұрын
It's 80cm in total. And yeah, that's not optimal in my opinion. 800-850 grams seems pretty much spot on for a generic mid-to late 19th century infantry sabre. Some, especially earlier ones, were often a lot lighter than that, which makes 850 as a *minimum* requirement seem a lot for an infantry sabre.
