1936 SS CHAINED DAGGER WITH KNOT-RZM PERIOD.
Introduced for wear by Officers in 1936, these spectacular daggers were worn/made up until around 1942. As with all dagger production from the early 1930’s onwards, as the constrains of the war gradually changed everything, the materials used to make these daggers changed too. We all know how the early SA and SS daggers were made with solid nickel crossguards etc but after the RZM became involv... read more
RARE SHORT BLACK HANGER FOR SS DAGGER RZM MARKED.
Trying to find any accessories for SS daggers is extremely difficult. I was lucky enough to buy a few hangers etc as a ‘job lot’. Several were brown SA hangers but in the bottom of the pile was this one with black leather!! It hasn’t been touched or on a dagger for a very long time, so the leather had slightly moulded to itself. The nickel plated snap clip is in near mint condition and is marke... read more
A RARE THIRD REICH PRODUCED POLICE BAYONET-UNUSUAL LENGTH.
It’s not commonly known that not all police bayonets worn during the period were re-issued Weimar types. The police bayonet continued to be produced well into the late 1930’s. These bayonets appear in many of the major manufacturer catalogues, Eickhorn for instance. This is a really interesting original example in near mint condition. It has a smaller sized aluminium hilt with stag grips and a ... read more

SS ‘33 MANS DAGGER WITH VERTICAL HANGER RZM 1196/38.
An interesting, original SS mans dagger. There is an identical piece pictured on page 172 of Tom Wittmann’s wonderful SS book. As he states in the description, this maker appears from time to time, but has yet to be identified. (Possibly now identified as Ed Wustoff?). The dagger is a typical RZM era piece with nickel plated over grey alloy fittings. The plating has thinned on the upper and low... 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

THIRD REICH NAVY DAGGER BY RARE MAKER AND WITH IVORY GRIP.
A good looking dagger complete with the correct bullion knot tied in the correct manner. Not instantly noticeable until I picked it up, but the dagger is heavier than normal. This down to the fact that it seems to have a solid ivory grip. I carefully took the pommel off (not easy) and the grip is completely solid with those tell-tale light ‘stripes’ running through the material. It’s is also wr... read more
RARE PATTERN WEHRMACHT OFFICERS SWIRD BY WKC WITH SEPARATELY APPLIED EAGLE & SWAZ.

One of the more uncommon is this hilt design. A lions head hilt in gilded aluminium, glass eyes but the cl... read more
