This Army Dove Head Sword is a very nice example, made by the firm F. W. Hller of Solingen, the legendary "City of Blades" in Western Germany. It features a very nice nickel plated blade, and comes complete with the correct black enamel painted steel scabbard. The hilt on this example is the classic gilt brass alloy, not the later war plated aluminum. The gilding is retained probably at about 25%, mostly on the edges
