German Kriegsmarine officer’s sword Malabar Toronto
CA$495.00
German made in early 1930’s on contract for famous costume house in Toronto, Ontario. High quality German workmanship with Malabar Limited Toronto on ricasso. Not maker marked due to anti-German sentiment at the time. Blade is 31 ¼ inches and excellent with patterned etching but very generic design, no images or coats of arms. Interesting artifact for a buyer with Toronto connection. The Malabar contract must have included a number of swords but we have never seen another one so marked. No scabbard.
