Dear all,
I recently acquired this felddegen. The hilt is of classical shape. The engravings on the blade show floral decoration as well as a turkish head on each side which can be linked to the great Turkish Wars. The sword comes from the castle of Pux in Austria. It was rebuild in 1909. The original castle burned off in christmas eve 1779. Interestingly the wooden grip is charred, which could mean that it already was located in the old castle. Total length: 95,5cm, blade: 81cm, blade width 3,6cm |
