Grip: The grip on this cutlass is of fine stag antler. This antler is a dark coffee color speckled with lighter color grains. The areas where the grips were trimmed have turned to a golden tone. The Grip have three applied acorns. Both ends of this guard terminate in stylized deer hooves. The fur on these hooves has good hand-enhanced detailing. The ferrule has a series of similar line decorations.

Blade: The slab sided blade of this cutlass is 33,2 cm in length. This blade is a in MINT condition and having triple etching. The obverse etch depicts the familiar hunter, outfitted with a rifle and a cutlass, running after a wild boar which is being harried by his hunting dogs. The reserve ricasso of the blade is deeply etched with the Eickhorn trademark, and the original brown leather blade washer is in place.

Scabbard: The scabbard shell is of black leather which shows little age. The leather is sewn up the rear and is decorated with twin accent lines that run down the edges of both sides. The matching brass scabbard mounts are relatively plain except for scalloped edges where they meet the shell. The upper mount is equipped with a fine lug in the shape of an acorn with a detailed cap. The lower mount is decorated with twin lines. These mounts are retained by staples in the usual fashion.
