Hi,
not certain whether to put this on the European forum ....but seeing as this is based on a ethnographic design thought it may be better here. Hemburg Klewang seems to be WW2 issue (brass plate on inner guard is marked....

6-I aF.II
45

Does anyone what this means...I am assuming 45 is the year.

Scabbard is stamped

O (or C) W
I or N (?)
10 40

The HEMBRUG stamp seems genuine. On the opposite side of the blade is a crown with a W underneath
any info. or comments greatly appreciated.

All the best
David
