Description
This Korth Ratzeburg Luxury 6-inch 25th Anniversary revolver represents everything that defines Korth at its highest level: uncompromising mechanical precision, restrained European elegance, and hand-finished artistry that exists far outside the realm of mass production.
Chambered in .357 Magnum, this revolver is built on Korth’s legendary Ratzeburg-era action, widely regarded by collectors and shooters alike as one of the finest double-action revolver systems ever produced. The trigger pull is characteristically glass-smooth in double-action and exceptionally crisp in single-action, a hallmark of Korth’s meticulous hand-fitting process.
What elevates this anniversary model into true luxury-grade territory is its decorative execution. The deep, high-polish blued finish serves as a dramatic backdrop for extensive gold inlay and engraving, including elegant foliate motifs along the barrel rib and cylinder flutes. The frame is further adorned with engraved panels and commemorative detailing that mark the 25th Anniversary, celebrating Korth’s heritage without overwhelming the revolver’s purposeful lines.
The 6-inch barrel offers ideal balance, enhancing both visual presence and shootability, while the adjustable target sights reflect Korth’s roots in precision competition and practical accuracy. Finely shaped checkered wooden grips complete the package, providing warmth, control, and a traditional contrast to the blued steel and gold accents.
All major components are factory-matched, reinforcing this revolver’s status as a cohesive, original example rather than an assembled or altered piece, an important distinction for serious collectors.
This Korth Ratzeburg Luxury Anniversary revolver is not merely a firearm; it is a statement piece. It belongs in a curated collection alongside the finest European sporting arms, appreciated as much for its engineering pedigree as for its restrained, confident artistry.
A rare and highly desirable example from one of Germany’s most revered gunmakers, created for those who understand that true luxury is found in precision, not excess.
