Description

"Nederlands M 1852 sabel voor officieren der Schutterijen" / Dutch Home Guard officer's sword M 1852. Superb bright fullered blade with German makers trade mark: Knight helmet (= Kirschbaum-Solingen) on the ricasso. Dutch quality marking: IJZERHOUWER in a scroll on the blade. Leather washer intact. Beautiful detachable M 1852 Berlin-Silver grip with cast Berlin silver pommel and a one piece black horn grip with twisted silver wire winding. Berlin-Silver hand guard with side bar. Crossguard with forward swept guillon. Total length 100 cm. Width at the ricasso 2,7 cm.
Excellent Berlin-Silver scabbard with a single loose hanging ring. Small dent halve way the scabbard only.

The concept for this Dutch M 1852 infantry officers model was doubtless the Russian M 1826 Infantry officers sword!

This M 1852 Home Guard officers sword differs from the M 1852 infantry officers sword in its finish only. The hilt of the M 1852 Home Guard model is always in Berlin-Silver, the Infantry model is finished in brass. 
A beautiful M 1852 Home guard officers sword in an Excellent condition. The Dutch Home Guard was dissolved in 1901. In 1888 the second loose hanging ring was abolished. So this example must have been made between 1888 and 1901.
