A rare beast that's forsure! This one rates 10 out of 10 for rarity on McSaar's SA rarity ratting! The blade on this one is a beauty! The acid etched "Alles für Deutschland" motto and "HH Hermann Hahn Sol.-Wald" maker mark are both dark, crisp and beautifully executed! The crossgrain is easily visible all the way from the hilt to the tip. The fit remains nice and tight and the tip comes to a perfect point! This blade rates a solid Exc++/NM. It shows the commonly seen age spotting and surface scratches throughout. The steel based, brown anodized scabbard looks beautiful as well! It continues to remain completely dent free! It only shows the slightest age spotting. The solid nickel scabbard fittings look excellent matching the crossguards in color and patina! The ball has a few bruises yet retains a nice round shape. All four scabbard screws remain tightly intact. The scabbard / crossguard fit is perfect and closes with a snap! The reverse of the lower crossguard is marked "Om" (Ostmark), which is quite rare for a gau mark. The brown hardwood grip looks great! It shows several pressure marks throughout but no cracks, flakes or chips! The solid nickel eagle retains beautiful details and has a perfect fit. The SA roundel has nice patina, a perfect fit and retains 99%+ of its enamel. A quality rare example!
