ARMY DAGGER WITH DEEP ORANGE GRIP!
An interesting dagger which has remained in an uncleaned state throughout. It’s outstanding feature is the deep orange grip.The reverse of the grip is a little lighter in colour, so it looks like this has been hanging on a wall for a long time. Crossguard has taken on a golden tone, looks like brass, but I think it’s just nicotine patina. The silver plated scabbard has also toned very dark due ... read more

LAND CUSTOMS DAGGER BY HORSTER.
Not the most common of daggers as there were not a huge amount of Customs officials. They look similar in shape and size to army daggers but have some major design differences. This one is predominantly made of brushed aluminium, pommel, crossguard and scabbard fittings. Green Moroccan leather to the grip and scabbard. Triple aluminium fittings to the scabbard. Grip has nice aluminium ‘springy’... read more

THIRD REICH SHOOTING ASSOCIATION DAGGER BY ALCOSO - COMPLETE.
A beautiful example which sadly comes from the extensive collection of a good friend of mine, who died last year. These Shooting Associstion daggers are more of a cutlass than a dagger. All follow the same design and are usually made by Eickhorn or Alcoso. The Third Reich Shooting Associstion only existed for a very short while during the period, as it was absorbed into the other armed forces t... read more

A COMPLETE ARMY DAGGER BY EICKHORN WITH STRAPS AND KNOT.
A good looking dagger with pumpkin orange grip. All metal parts are a muted grey colour. This seems to be a later production piece with no evidence of nickel plating as far as I can see. Great detail through. No damage, scabbard perfect. A very nice original 42cm portapee tied in the correct manner. A good set of original straps which show honest period use. Green velvet backing shows some wear... read more

Pommel has the usual Waffenampt stamps to the reverse. Bakelite grips. Scabbard in good order with just a little old surface pitting to the front. Frog is in excellent condition. Blade is very nice. Car... read more

A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF A RZM PERIOD 1936 SS CHAINED DAGGER.
Whist collectors strive to buy a nice, early SS chained dagger, this history of these pieces follows with time of production too. Introduced in 1936 these daggers were made with nickel plated fittings etc. However, as time progresses and war shortages took hold, all SS daggers and all SA daggers changed in the materials they were made with. The RZM also took tighter control and standardised con... read more

PERSONALISED LUFTWAFFE FIGHTING KNIFE.
An interesting example this. These fighting knives were often personalised by their owners. Usually just a set of initials carved into the wood grips. However, this one is a little better as the original owner has indeed added his initials on one side W.F. but on the other side he has added his divisional regimental symbol. This is a stylised ‘R’ and is the squadron symbol for Jagdgeschwader 2 ... read more
