Thema: Eisenbahnerdegen oder Hirschfänger? Weyersberg & Stamm, Solingen (https://www.deutsches-blankwaffenforum.de/topic.php?id=10793)

Hello everyone,

I would like to ask for your help with identifying this blade.
The manufacturer's trademark is Weyersberg & Stamm, Solingen.

Details:
Blade length: 70.8 cm
Stag horn grip
Brass guard
Etched blade on both sides

One side shows a steam locomotive with passenger coaches.
The other side shows a winged railway wheel together with ornamental etching.
After some research I found information about German Eisenbahnerdegen
(railway swords), but I have not been able to find another example with these
exact blade etchings. Could this be a railway presentation sword or a ceremonial
weapon for a railway official, or is it something completely different?

Any information about the model, period, intended use,
or similar examples would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much for your time and expertise.

Regards
Tomas

Hallo Tomas, sieht mir sehr verspielt aus.Ob es solche kurzen Stücke gegeben hat ist schon möglich aber meiner Meinung nach, nicht mit so einem Gefäß.

Hello Mario,
thank you very much for your opinion.
What exactly seems unusual to you about the hilt? Do you mean that this type of hilt does not fit with such a short blade?
Do you think it is possible that the blade and the hilt originally did not belong together?
I’m very curious about your opinion, as I’m trying to find out what this piece actually is.
Tomas
