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’.

A VERY EARLY NSDAP PARTY ARMBAND - UNUSUAL.
This is a very unusual armband, 100% original, but I am pretty sure this goes back to the early years of the NADAP. All cotton piece construction. Red band with applied white circle and separately applied swastika. It also has a single thin, gold bullion strip machine stitched around the middle and a single metal ‘star’ pinned through the centre. In my eyes this pre-dates the RZM later officia... read more
PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT REFERENCE BOOK FOR DAGGER AND SWORD COLLECTORS.
J.Anthony Carter is a renown author in the collecting community and has written many references on bayonets etc. Unfortunately he died in 2002 before managing to finish this amazing reference. John Walter and Hennig Ritter took on the Herculean task of completing it, and it was published in 2015 by the Tharston Press in New Jersey. It is an absolute amazing reference. It contains details of ALL... read more
PERHAPS ONE OF THE RAREST SS DAGGERS. A FULL ROHM INSCRIPTION ‘33 SS DAGGER BY EICKHORN WITH ORIGINAL OWNERS SS NUMBER.
Yes,there are honour daggers and individually presentation pieces that are mega rare, and effectively unaffordable, but to find a FULL ROHM ‘33 SS DAGGER is quite a feat in itself. As collectors will know, ALL items with any connection to Ernst Rohm were ordered to be destroyed or defaced, after Hitler had him killed in 1934 for treason (supposedly). Up until that time Rohm was in overall comma... read more

SET OF NEAR MINT ‘HORSESHOE’ TOP ARMY DAGGER HANGERS.
One of the dozens of variations of army dagger hangers produced in the Third Reich period, but this particular type is quite rare and liked by collectors.

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

SMALL JAPANESE SUNBURST FLAG or PENNANT.
No idea what this was for but it’s an ideal size to display with Japanese items. Measures only 16” x 13”. Printed on cotton and single sided. Would have had 2 of the little leather tabs and string, but one is missing. There are indistinct ink stamps on the reverse corner. Interesting little flag. read more
