This is a miniature of the sword carried by the “Iron Chancellor,” Otto von Bismarck. If you look closely, you will see his family’s coat-of-arms. The blade is plain. Overall, this sword, which measures 7 1/2″ in length, is in fine condition. This would make a super desk piece. Or as the original owner may have done, you can open letters with it.

This is a catalog from the August Lüneberg firm, which had offices in Kiel and Flensburg during the Imperial German Period. They sold naval officers’ daggers, portépées, etc. The catalog measures 9 1/4″ x 12 1/4″ and has a total of ten pages. The firm’s specialty was officers’ daggers. Several pages showcase their various models. The blades exhibit various levels of engraving. Even Damascus blades are listed. I see full daggers ranging from 30 to 70 Marks for a dagger with a Damascus blade. Farther along are such things as officers’ belts, belts with hangers, and portépées. [My mouth really watered when I saw a Konteradmiral’s epaulettes for 70.50 marks! His daily-use uniform’s shoulder boards cost 13.75 marks]. Lüneberg’s also sold miniatures of decorations that could be attached to tie chains. The back page’s reverse features pistols from such firms as Browning, Mauser, etc.
Although complete, the catalog is NOT in perfect condition. Some foxing affects its pages. It also has a cut where a portion of the paper is missing on several pages.

This is a very high-quality miniature sword that can be used as a desk piece or letter opener. The sword measures 9 1/4″ in length. An intricate basket surrounds the grip, and the word “Toledo” appears just below its guard. It is NOT Imperial German, nor do we know its age, although it is probably 20th Century. It still makes a handsome desk piece or a letter opener.

In the past we have offered miniatures of the German naval dagger. We have never offered one quite like this! This miniature was intended either as a tie tack or as a lady’s pin. It has a safety on the reverse. The attaching pin is mounted to the scabbard’s reverse. The dagger actually can be withdrawn from its scabbard, to which it is attached by a very fine gold-toned chain. When withdrawn, we see that the blade is plain, with a high-silver finish. The overall dagger length (in the scabbard) is 2 1/4.” When withdrawn from the scabbard, the dagger measures 1 1/2″ in length. The scabbard by itself measures 1 1/2.”
It is a very handsome decorative piece which can be worn by that special person (or you) on dress-up occasions!
