THE KINDER SABEL:
This is something I picked up at an antique and collector's market in Munich, Germany, in the winter of 1995.
It appealed to my love of historical militaria and antique toys, and military themed antique toys.
But I'm downsizing my collection of things I've acquired (some would say "hoarded") over the past 60 years to raise some funds for the dog and wolfdog rescue my daughter and I run.
Discussed here:
With this reply from another member here:
The regular sword appears to be standard Austrian D guard sword. Value $250 or so. Weyersberg is maker mark, other one is probably distributer or Store markings.
Kinder sword is similar pattern, they go for $150 to $200
Just my opinion
I also posted it in another forum here, with more photos:
Anyhow, with an estimated value of $150 to $200, I'll go for the low end, so hopefully give anyone here who wants it a deal.
Price is $120 + shipping.
First definite and unconditional "I'll take it" to my EMAIL at vonweigert(at)earthlink.net gets it.
I'm in California, and shipping in the U.S. will be in the triangular Priority Mail mailing tube.
US Postal Money order works best, but personal check or other money order are fine too.
I am not able to take any forms of on-line or electronic payment like PayPal, Venmo, etc.
Insurance at buyer's option and cost, I pack things well but have no control over what happens once shipped, so in accordance with standard contract law, possession/ownership and risk of loss/damage passes to buyer once it is delivered to the post office.
THE FULL SIZE AUSTRIAN SABER:
It is not shown in the photos with the sword, but it comes with correct scabbard also, which is the bottom scabbard in the photo of the 3 scabbards.
$200 + SHIPPING

Information sought on Solingen and Budapest marked sabre.
I picked this one up back in the early 1980's, don't remember exactly where. I do not have the scabbard for it. The miniature "Kinder Sabel" child's version shown in the photo with it, I picked at an antique and collector's market in Munich, Germany, in the winter of 1995. The little child...

Kinder Sabel and comparison with full size one. Information, comments, value estimates sought.
I picked the Kinder Sabel up at an antique faire in Munich, Germany, in the winter of 1995. The full size one is something I picked up, I no longer recall exactly where, back in the 1980's. The little child sword is definitely patterned after the design of the real sword, which seems to...
