This is a modified M.1930 Army officer sword. It has a M. 1909 blade , made probably during 1941-1944 (see the Michael’s Cross). For sparingly reasons, the officer took the hilt and the grip of a M.1906 cavalry trooper sword. The hilt was nickeled and modified to have folding sides.

This is a M.1906 trooper sword carried by Romanian cavalry during the two world wars. These swords were produced by Alex. Coppel of Solingen and were copies of the M.1889 german cavalry swords.

Unfortunately your sword is not in the best condition…

Thanks for the help Kepi.

The sword was found in a house when the owner demolished it. It was in a wall.
