A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF A SS NCO’s PARADE DEGEN BY WKC.

A great sword which I happily sold to a discerning collector earlier in the year. He decided to part exchange it for a different and more expensive sword, so I am very happy to be able to offer it again. These are not a common sword, and this one is in very nice condition. Made by WKC and is pictured as a line drawing in their period catalogue. Nickel plated steel fittings with a plain black ebony grip with the horizontal multi-groves. The flat pommel is the only designation of its purpose and features a cast pair of SS runes deeply sunk.
Scabbard is dent free and has an upper nickel plated fitting. The bottom of the scabbard has an integral steel ‘drag’. Blade is very nice and is the normal unplated polished steel. The WKC knights head trademark appears on one side of the occasion. On the other side are a pair of deeply stamped SS runes. There is an original black leather blade washer.
WKC swords were not marked with the small SS Kulturzeichen,as officers swords were, and WKC did not make SS officers degens as far as we know.As with all SS swords, this is long (no short SS men!) Blade measures 33 1/2” and overall 39 1/2”.
