The base of the blade is marked "Ges. Geschutzt" on the reverse. NO other maker markings or stamps. The original leather stopper is still intact and in great shape. The handle is original with a diamond pattern on the front and smooth "slab side" on the back panel. Natural patina throughout the hand guard and pommel. Great detail on the Red Cross Eagle logo.
