Weyersberg was essentially a family sword-making dynasty. This family is recorded as making swords as early as the 1400\'s, and was located near Solingen, Germany. They produced blades with the King\'s Head and a rooster marking. This blade has the King\'s Head as shown in the pictures. Prior to the Civil War, we find its blades used by such makers as Frederick Widmann and Horstmann & Sons. This sword is marked as Horstmann & Sons Philadelphia. The markings on the blade are light and worn with age, as is expected. During the American Civil War, Horstmann & Sons used many of Gebruder Weyersberg\'s blades on its higher grade swords.
