German Sword, pre-1918 Cavalry. Lion head [M. Neumann Berlin] Family Coat of Arms. Damascus steel, etching, gilding. (Lot: 1382)
$ 7,895 fee: 22.5%Cavalry edged weapons of the German Empire were intended for officers and enlisted men of dragoon, cuirassier, uhlan, hussar, and other cavalry regiments, remaining in service until the end of the First World War in 1918. This category includes sabers, pallasches, and other examples of bladed weapons that formed an integral part of German cavalry equipment. The presented German saber, dating to before 1918, serves as an excellent example of officer armament from the Imperial period.
The most distinctive feature of many officer cavalry sabers is the pommel in the form of a lion’s head, one of the most recognizable symbols of German edged weapons from the Imperial period. This model gained widespread use in German armies of the 19th century, particularly among cavalry and infantry officers, and to this day remains a desirable acquisition for serious collectors.
The firm M. Neumann, Berlin was a German supplier of military equipment and edged weapons in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The enterprise was located in Berlin and supplied sabers, pallasches, bayonets, and other military items for the German army, earning a reputation as a reliable manufacturer of quality officer weapons.
A coat of arms on the blade or hilt of a German saber indicates that the weapon belonged to a member of a noble house or aristocratic family. Such examples were made to individual order and were frequently embellished with a motto, initials, or a crown of the appropriate rank. The presence of a family coat of arms significantly enhances the historical and collectible value of the piece, as in certain cases it allows identification of the specific owner and tracing of the weapon’s provenance.
The blade is forged from Damascus steel and decorated with ornamental etching and gilding. This combination of materials and techniques is characteristic of the most prestigious examples of ceremonial and presentation edged weapons, making this specimen particularly attractive to discerning connoisseurs of German military antiques.

Technical Emergency Corps (TeNo) Leader’s Dagger, Model 1938 (Lot: 1456)
Auction EndedTechnical Emergency Corps (TeNo) Leader’s Dagger, Model 1938, manufactured by Carl Eickhorn of Solingen. This example bears the manufacturer’s trademark and retains matching numbers on the blade and scabbard, confirming their factory pairing and attesting to the complete original preservation of the piece.
This dagger model was introduced in November 1938, concurrently with the adoption of new regulation edged weapons for the TeNo organization. It was intended to be worn with dress uniform by commanding officers holding the rank of Stabsscharführer and above. Officers purchased these daggers at their own expense through special organizational outlets.
The history of the Technical Emergency Corps began on September 30, 1919. Throughout the existence of the Weimar Republic, the corps repeatedly distinguished itself, demonstrating efficiency and excellent technical training. Naturally, this organization could not escape the attention of the new leadership, the National Socialist Party. In 1939, to further enhance efficiency, TeNo was transferred to the jurisdiction of the Reich Ministry of Foreign Affairs and subordinated to police structures, allowing for improved operational capacity. Prior to the commencement of the Polish campaign, TeNo was commanded by SS Gruppenführer (SS Lieutenant General) Schmelzer; he was later succeeded in this post by SS Gruppenführer Weinreich.
The Carl Eickhorn company was founded in Solingen in 1865 and became one of the largest manufacturers of edged weapons in Germany. The company’s trademark, featuring a squirrel (Eichhörnchen), served as a guarantee of the highest quality products. During the Third Reich period, the firm produced a wide range of regulation edged weapons, including daggers for all branches of service, SA and SS daggers, NPEA, NSFK, and TeNo daggers, as well as dress daggers, sabers, and swords. Carl Eickhorn products are distinguished by superior steel quality and meticulous finishing, and are highly valued by modern collectors.
