This 2nd Model Luftwaffe Dagger, produced by GAZELLE and is in Mint condition overall. Model 1937. The total length is 43.3 cm. The Dagger has the maker mark on the blade: Gebr. Krusius (GAZELLE) Solingen.

Grip: The grip of this dagger is a beauty, being a shade of light orange and is tightly wrapped with wire. The pommel is a great example. The oak leaves which surround the swastikas are extremely well rendered and hand engraved right up to the smooth center ridge line. The eagle retain full detail to the head, feathering and talons.

Blade: The blade is in MINT condition throughout, with all of the crossgrain, a mirror finish and a needle-like tip. This blade is etchet on the reverse with the Gazelle trademark having the firm's initials and location beneath, “Gebr. Krusius Solingen”. The leather washer is in place.

Scabbard: The scabbard is also a fine example. It is coated with an airplane gray finish. It has outstanding crisp pebbled panels and the bands are a fine aluminum having excellent detail to the oak leaves. The throat is slightly thick and is retained by one mount screw.
