Featured in this lot is a Daniel Hartkopf & Co. German hunting hanger, circa 1870 to 1910. The hunting hanger features a wonderfully and professionally crafted steel with brass hilt and sheath. The decorated piece has a leather sheath and a vertical striation decorated wooden handle. The hilt shows a double stag head with floral decorations and the sheath shows a wolf's head. The "DH" inside a shield mark is associated with the sword maker Daniel Hartkopf & Co., a German manufacturer based in Solingen. Solingen is a renowned center for the production of knives, swords, and other edged weapons, often referred to as the "City of Blades." A hunting hanger is a type of short sword or large knife that was commonly used in the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly by hunters and outdoors men. The hunting hanger represents an important piece of hunting and military history, blending practicality with the status and aesthetics of the time. Hartkopf's swords and other edged weapons were likely used by military personnel and could be found in both civilian and military markets. The condition of this German Hunting Hanger is well preserved with some slight wear to the handle and patina adorning the blade and the hilt of the blade with the sheath in poor condition with wear to the leather, but otherwise it is well preserved. The measurements of this German hunting hanger are 29 1/8" x 4 1/2" x 1 1/8" and the blade length is 22 1/4". The collective weight of this hunting hanger is 1lb 14oz.*
