A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF AN EICKHORN ‘PRINZ EUGEN’ PARADE SWORD WITH KNOT.

One of my favourite sword types and part of the 9 group of Eickhorn swords known as the ‘Field Marshall’ series. This is a long sword measuring about 38” overall, so the original owner was a tall chap! This is one of the few Third Reich swords that has an eagle and swastika incorporated into the hilt design TWICE. Once on the crossguard with a great open wing eagle, and again on the dove head p...  read more

LUFTWAFFE 1st PATTN DAGGER IN ALUMINIUM BY EICKHORN.

A very nice example of the Luftwaffe 1st Pattn dagger in aluminium as worn by Senior NCO’s etc.
Whilst introduced in 1935 and then only worn by Officers, the introduction of the 2nd Pattn dagger in 1937 enabled just NCO’s to wear the 1st Pattn dagger, while Officers changed over to the 2nd Pattn. This is made by Eickhorn and has a mint nickel plated blade with the 1935-42 Eickhorn squir...  read more

A LUFTWAFFE 1st Pattn DAGGER WITH CHAIN - PURCHASED FROM A THEATRE IN GERMANY.

A most interesting item which displays well but obviously has been used for film or theatrical work over the years. All parts, except for the chains, seem to be original but have come from different sources or other daggers over the years. Scabbard is real but has leather missing from the upper edges. Grip is real. Pommel is real, as is the crossguard but it’s aliminium, whereas the other bits ...  read more
