Оценочная стоимость
€ 24 000
Obwohl diese Waffen allgemein als schießende Saufedern bezeichnet werden, waren sie vermutlich nicht für eine jagdliche Verwendung gedacht. Die Form des Blattes entspricht auch den kurzen Hellebarden, die auf Abbildungen des 16. Jhdts. häufig von Feldwebeln geführt wurden. Vermutlich handelt es sich hier daher um eine Luxusausführung dieser Unteroffizierswaffen, die auch als Rangabzeichen fungierten.
Von großer Seltenheit, weltweit sind nur wenige vergleichbare Exemplare erhalten, so z.B. ein Exemplar im Metropolitan Museum in New York (Accession Number: 04.3.77), den Royal Armouries Collections in Leeds und den Livrustkammaren in Stockholm.
A distinguished shooting boar spear with two wheellock mechanisms, Nuremberg, circa 1570
Sturdy blade with a double medial ridge on both sides, a sturdy fluke on both sides of the root. Round barrels with smooth bores in 10 mm calibre in the fullers of the blade. Both barrels stamped at the root with the Nuremberg proof mark "N" above a half eagle. Lateral lock plates with interior, enclosed wheels, a hallmark with a lute and "AB" struck in the plates (Der Neue Stöckel, no. 1809). The spring-loaded pan cover with a release button. Lock plates and frame embellished with finely etched tendrils and arabesques. The sturdy, rectangular socket and the four long side straps also finely etched. Original quadrangular wooden shaft made of ash, with iron trigger guards on both sides. Original iron shoe, slight worm damage at the lower end of the shaft. Length 193 cm.
Although these weapons are generally known as shooting boar spears, they were probably not designed for use during the hunt. Moreover, the shape of the blade resembles that of the short halberds, which are frequently carried by sergeants in 16th century illustrations. In all likelihood, this is a deluxe edition of the weapon for a non-commissioned officer, which also served as a badge of rank.
Extremely rare find. Only very few comparable examples can be found today, such as those in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum in New York (Accession Number: 04.3.77), the Royal Armouries Collections in Leeds and the Livrustkammaren in Stockholm.
