Group D II The saber is the closest to a variant of the 1859 infantry officer cable. KLINGAN has the same shape as on the officer bar m/1859, ie. has reinforced back and heel, but is narrower than the heels m/1859 and additionally straight. The width of the Klingnan at the top. FETTER is of gilded brass. The KAVELN is dressed with blackened fish skins and around it go 7 ribs, in which a pair of two parties together inserted fine brass threads are attached. Both threads are twisted in the same direction. At the rear, the cavity has a spine, which at the top passes in a ciselated coat. Around the lower part of the cavity and the spine one with two engraved stripes adorned ring-like fittings. The outer part of the PARERPLÅTENS is quite large and upward bent, while the inner is small and downward bent. The former is broken and on the outside, but not on the inside ciselated in ornaments, the crowned name cipher of Karl XV. The inner party is neither untouched nor broken through. The PARERT has a square cross section, batill is deflected and ends in one side with an ornamented button. To the front, the parerpole becomes right wide and is marked on the lower side of the parerplate, not on its upper side. At the front, it passes in the handrail, which has almost oval cross-section, but which on the front edge, to the outside, has a recessed stripe. At the top, the handloom is cleaved into two branches, which hit the cloak on both sides of the lion’s hood’s mouth. These branches are adorned on the sides with engraving. On the inner side of the parerpole button, a just obscure stamp is finned, the name “Ek” being clear. The initials seem to be “J A.” Associated No: AM.23961-3
