EARLY SA DAGGER WITH ONE OF THE RAREST MAKERS - DAVID MALSCH.

A recent purchase from the fair last Sunday. This is an early SA ‘33 dagger by the rare maker DAVID MALSCH. There are over 200 different makers of early SA daggers, some large companies and some very small cottage makers. DAVID MALSCH is rated as 10/10! One of the rarest and most difficult makers to acquire. All early solid nickel fittings. A very nice darker brown hardwood grip with quite pronounced edges. Nickel eagle and perfect SA button. Scabbard has a full covering of the brown ‘anodised’ finish and quite a bit of the original lacquer costing. The lower scabbard ball has taken a slight ‘hit’ to the left. The lower crossguard is Gau marked ‘He’. The blade is in very nice bright condition. Has a great deal of the original crossgrain polish. The motto has a lot of the original blackening in the letters. The reverse riccasso has the deep oval trademark for DAVID MALSCH. A ideal opportunity to buy a rare SA maker and fill in that gap in your collection.
