SHORT FIRE ‘BAYONET’ BY PUMA.
A chance to acquire a very decent Fire Dress bayonet but upgrade at your convenience!
Bayonet itself is in perfect condition. Good nickel plating, perfect chequered grips. A nice carbine type blade and the PUMA maker on the riccasso. The scabbard has had a tough life though. Dent on one side, missing the suspension lug and has been repainted. Hence the affordable price!

A GOOD SET OF RED CROSS DAGGER HANGERS.
The hangers for the German Red Cross and those for the German Social Welfare organisation are completely different. This is the ONLY way to tell them apart as the daggers are identical. It is a pure myth that just because the scabbard strap bands are slightly different, it differentiates between Red Cross or Social Welfare. Round holes verses rectangular holes?? It was JUST A MANUFACTURING DES... read more

LAND CUSTOMS DAGGER WITH ORIGINAL KNOT BY HORSTER.
Not an easy dagger to find as the Customs officers around Germany were not huge in numbers. Of similar size and shape to an army officers dagger.
This one is by EF Horster but they were produced by various companies , Eickhorn and WKC for instance. This one is one of the brushed aluminium types, so the pommel, crossguard and scabbard fittings are all aluminium. Nice green leather grip w... read more

A FANTASTIC EXAMPLE OF THE LONGEST SS OFFICERS DEGEN I HAVE OWNED!
Members of the SS were chosen, amongst other things, for their physical attributes and prowess.
Therefore you never find a short SS officers sword.
However, THIS one is the longest I have ever owned or personally come across. Overall it measures 43” (that’s 3’6”!) with a 37 1/4” blade. Massive. The owner would have been about 6’6”” tall. The Degen is in near mint condition and i... read more

A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF A WEIMAR/THIRD REICH PERIOD NAVAL OFFICERS SWORD.
The German navy seemed to resist having too many Third Reich symbols on their edged weapons. The daggers just had one small one on the eagle pommel and many officers wore their old daggers with just an updated eagle pommel.Their dress swords remained virtually unchanged from WW1 and didn’t carry any swastikas on the exterior at all! The design of the sword carried in the late 1920’s (Weimar per... read more
