A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF A WEHRMACHT FIGHTING KNIFE OR ‘Nahkampfmesser’.
These have become extremely difficult to find. The last one I bought in the US in February and could have sold it 4x over!’Slightly smaller than the more common Luftwaffe fighting knife, these have no crossguard, a narrower single edged blade and a steel scabbard with large metal spring clip which enables it to be clipped to belts, boots or Y-strap equipment. A nice clean wooden grip in excelle... read more

UNTOUCHED 1915 PRUSSIAN OR’s PICKELHAUBE COMPLETE.

Black leather skull in very good shape with just a little crazing. Front and rear peaks in good shape and attached to the main body. The grey metal spike is detachable from the base. The grey metal eagle fr... read more

MOST UNUSUAL SHOOTING ASSOCIATION DAGGER/CUTLASS WITH ORANGE CELLULOID GRIP.
I’ve had a few Shooting Association daggers recently, in fact I have another by Horster listed elsewhere. These are rare pieces, and whist the German Shooting Association existed in the 1900’s (and before) and still exists today. The Third Reich Shooting Association as a para-military organisation, only existed for a few years in the late 1930’s, before being disbanded and suitable members draf... read more

AN UN-MESSED WITH, WW2 JAPANESE OFFICERS KATANA.
Originally bought back as an American GI’s souvenir, this Katana has been in the same collection for the past 30 years. A typical later war factory produced example with corresponding features. I’m glad to say it has bee left completely alone. Nice cloth bound grip shows age handling but no damage. The little cloth string/cord to the pommel is broken/missing. The Tsuba is one piece cast with so... read more

EARLY ALL BRASS WEHRMACHT OFFICERS ‘DOVE HEAD’ SWORD BY KREBS.
Third Reich officers swords have gained a lot more popularity in the past few years. Standard models fetching some record figures at auction both here and in Europe. You get a lot for your money and because of their construction are not reproduced. This a nice early sword by Carl Julius Krebs. It’s designated in their catalogue as ‘ No.3’. However, this one is not actually maker marked (as far... read more

A NICE EXAMPLE OF THIRD REICH NAVAL DAGGER WITH RARER LATER EICKHORN TRADEMARK.
Navy daggers have always been a favourite of mine and I have been lucky enough to have 100’s pass through my hands over the years. Carl Eickhorn are easily the predominant maker. Most have the 1935-42 trademark, a few have the lovely early oval trademark and a few have this post-1942 trademark of the squirrel looking back over its shoulder. Considering dagger production probably ceased in 1942 ... read more
SA DAGGER WITH HANGER RZM M7/42 WKC.
A very nice example of a SA dagger by the well known firm WKC. Produced probably after 1938+. Nice mid-coloured hardwood grip with nickel eagle and perfect SA button. Considering this is a later RZM era piece, the plating on the crossguards and scabbard fittings is EXCELLENT. No real evidence of oxidisation, in fact they look like solid nickel fittings. Scabbard body is painted in a rich brown ... read more

Lovely scabbard with 99% of original gloss paint. Blade is extremely bright and clean. Small ‘stick bird’ ordinance/makers marking of ‘5’ stamped into the riccasso.
