DOUBLE PERSONALISED ‘GENERAL’ ARMY OFFICERS DAGGER. WITH STRAPS.

This later period dagger is actually dated, so we can identify it exactly. Dagger has a nice cream celluloid grip, plaster filled. The generic crossguard (similar in design to the WKC type) has been period ‘enhanced’ by gilding the surfaces. Just the eagle and swastika has been done, not the rest of the crossguard. Scabbard is dent free and in good condition with plating intact. The blade is wh...  read more

IMPERIAL GERMAN NAVAL SWORD WITH HAMMERED SCABBARD.

The lions head hilt has great detail. Cream solid grip with original triple wire wrap. No damage! This sword has front and read folding langets. The larger front one features the navy anchor with an Imperial crown a...  read more

MINIATURE THIRD REICH ARMY DAGGER.

A very nice example of the smaller 7 1/2” army dagger miniature. As many of you know, I have specialised and collected theses for nearly 40 years, so I know all the different variations. This is a solid cast hilt type. The crossguard, grip and pommel are all cast together. Incredible detail. The grips on these are painted to look like celluloid and come in a variety of colours, cream, yellow, o...  read more

A RARE LUFTWAFFE BOMBER CREW SURVIVAL MACHETE COMPLETE WITH TROPICAL FROG!.

Not a dress dagger of course, but an edged weapon and therefore fits into the ‘collecting’ side of things.
Part of the survival kit installed and issued to Luftwaffe bomber crews and ONLY made by ALCOSO. The early versions have a brass hilt, later ones have a steel hilt and there is an even rarer ‘sawback’ version. They measure about “ overall with a single edged wide steel blade. Bra...  read more

ARMY DAGGER WITH STRAPS AND KNOT BY TIGER.

Not a common maker to find and this is a complete dagger in very nice overall condition. All nickel plated fittings in very good order. Tiger used fittings shared by other manufacturers, which have become known as ‘Generic A’ type crossguard. Very good detail and no lifting to the plating. A cream coloured celluloid over wood grip with no damage. It has the original 42cm bullion portapee tied i...  read more

HITLER YOUTH KNIFE, PLAIN BLADE BY RZM M7/72.

Another decent example of a HITLER YOUTH knife produced after 1938 so has a plain blade with no motto. However, it’s by another maker I have never heard of Kaldenbach Karl Robert (KKR), Solingen-Grafrath | RZM M7/72. The RZM code etch is deeply stamped into the reverse riccasso and partly obscured by the blade washer. Good nickel plated hilt with a little bit of surface corrosion to the surface...  read more

‘SPECIAL OFFER’ HITLER YOUTH KNIFE M7/3.

RE-LISTED DUE TO TIME WASTER……Part of a large collection I had the pleasure of buying recently. This is a post-1938 HJ dagger by RZM M7/3 (Kuno Ritter Solingen-Gräfrath). Interestingly the hilt is steel and nickel plated rather than the grey pot metal alloy they used for later daggers. Hilt has lost most of the plating and is just down to the steel base. Perfect chequered grips and perfect HJ d...  read more

LUFTWAFFE 2nd Pattn. DAGGER BY EICKHORN WITH DISTRIBUTOR MARKED BLADE, HANGERS & KNOT.

RE-LISTED DUE TO FAILED TRANSACTION…This is not a combination I have come across very often, especially on a Luftwaffe dagger like this. It was common for officers to acquire uniforms etc from an official distributor, a private taylor’s shop for instance. Daggers and swords could be ordered through them too, and very occasionally the distributor would add his name to the item, or in this case, ...  read more
