THIRD REICH ERA NAVY OFFICERS PARADE SWORD AND BULLION PORTAPEE.

Navy swords are always interesting items. Both German and British naval swords are VERY similar with a couple of distinctive variations. Curved blades and the lower scabbard chape or drag. German navy swords changed very little between WW1 and WW2. The main difference was the type of anchor motif cast into the folding clamshell. Imperial swords have an anchor and Imperial crown above. Weimar an...  read more

SUPER, UNTOUCHED NSFK FLYERS DAGGER BY SMF.

An extremely nice example of this very popular dagger. Forms part of the history of the Luftwaffe. Originally formed as the DLV (Deutche Luft Verband) which was a ‘volunteer’ flying club or organisation to get around the limits set on Germany under the Versailles Treaty after WW1. Then became the NSFK, National Socialist Flying Korps, before openly forming the Luftwaffe. Members had these nice,...  read more

AN EARLY SS ‘33 DAGGER WITH ORIGINAL VERTICAL HANGER BY HERDER.

An extremely nice SS ‘33 dagger by premier maker. Worn by ALL members/ranks of the SS until 1936, when the chained dagger was authorised for Officers. This one also has what I think are ‘capture dates’ scratched into the top and bottom crossguards. They both read 11-13-44. Not an SS membership number, and written in the way Americans write their dates with the MONTH first, then DATE then YEAR. ...  read more

A MOST UNUSUAL BAHNSCHUTZ 2nd Pattn. DRESS DAGGER.

I’ve not had a dagger quite like this with this type of construction. These BAHNSCHUTZ daggers are made mostly of aluminium. Pommel and crossguard are solid aluminium. The scabbard is steel with an anodised silver finish. However, the grip, on this example is also made of aluminium!! Never seen this before, as usually these are solid celluloid. It’s perfectly formed and finished in a black shin...  read more

ARMY OFFICERS DOVE HEAD PARADE SWORD BY ALCOSO.

A nice example of a parade sword made by Alcoso. It is pictured in Angola’s sword book on page 63 and like most of Alcoso swords is unattributed. A very nice brass base ‘dove head’ hilt with a lot of the original fire gilt still visible, especially on the reverse. This is quite a ‘dainty’ sword if you can call them that. Quite a small D guard, thinner blade and quite a small national closed win...  read more

A RARE EXAMPLE OF A COMPLETE/FULL ROHM DEDICATION EARLY SA DAGGER BY EICKHORN. PERSONALISED POMMELL NUT!.

Would actually make a great companion to the fully erased Rohm SA recently listed. Same maker and same era. This is a superior example of a 1934 SA dagger by Carl Eickhorn with the full, untouched ROHM DEDICATION. As collectors know, anything to do with Rohm was ordered by Hitler to be erased or destroyed. How or why these daggers have survived, as it would have been dangerous at the time to ke...  read more
