A ‘TRANSITIONAL’ SA DAGGER BY J.A. HENCKELS- DOUBLE MARKED.

Whist not in mint condition, and priced accordingly, this is a great example of the type of SA dagger collectors now call ‘transitional’. It’s because the RZM have taken over quality control of production, but the companies are marking the blades with their trademark as well as the RZM code. This example is by J A HENCKELS and has their twins oval logo, as well as the RZM circle M7/10 1938. read more

EXTREMELY NICE EARLY NICKEL LUFTWAFFE SWORD.

I sold this a while ago and have just repurchased it from the customer, and I am very pleased to have it back again! An early example with solid nickel fittings throughout. It’s not been cleaned in a very long time so has developed a ‘smokey’ patina. Perfect dark blue leather to scabbard and grip, which has a super triple wire wrap. Upper scabbard rings have the original blue crescent leather i...  read more

THIRD REICH NAVY DAGGER BY WKC WITH KNOT & STANDARD PLAIN BLADE.

A nice example of effectively a ‘basic’ navy dagger with no optional extras! It’s not commonly know that the double etched blade on most navy daggers was an ‘extra cost’ item charged by the manufactures. It’s actually listed in the Eickhorn sales catalogue price list as such, so I imagine other makers did the same. It’s also why you occasionally see a navy dagger with a beautiful hammered scabb...  read more

THIRD REICH NAVY DAGGER WITH ORANGE GRIP & HAMMERED SCABBARD BY WKC.

One of the navy dagger types most collectors are after. WKC were a popular maker of navy daggers and this is a good example. All brass fittings with a yellow/orange celluloid grip. There is a small crack in the celluloid but it is at the rear section, near the bottom, so not noticeable from the front. The grip has the normal brass twisted wire wrap. It also has the original bullion knot tied in...  read more

A MINT CONDITIONED EARLY DLV FLYERS KNIFE/DAGGER.

I have been really lucky in buying several of these this year, and amazingly all have been by the much sort after maker, GEBRUDER HELLER with the Baloon Man trademark. All have been lovely examples, but I think this is the best one yet!! Considering this was made around 1934/35, it’s in MINT condition. The leather is perfect and a great blue colour, the solid nickel fittings are also perfect wi...  read more
