Guard, grip and pommel in great shape with some age appropriate dings, wear and scuffs. Everything is tight and solid. Scabbard is wood wrapped in linen and ebony lacquered. Crazing throughout, chipped in many places but still in better condition than many I have seen. The drag cap seam is lifted in 2 spots. The mosin nagant bayonet is WW2 vintage, shows. Age but needs to be correctly fitted. The Soviet era sword production was drastically limited by the huge drop in steel production. From 4.3 million tons in 1913 to a mere. 02 million tons in 1921, The year this sword was made. Over 5 million Russian people died the same year as a result of famine. The majority of the swords used in the Reds struggles against the Whites were Imperial era with the cyphers ground off. These were in use from the revolution up until WW2. The small number of Soviet era produced swords is the reason for their high value today. As well as the fact that they are just a beast of a sword. With a low starting price and no reserve.
