Luftwaffe Dagger [1937] by Rich. A. Herder Solingen

This 2nd Model Luftwaffe Dagger, produced by Rich. A. Herder Solingen, and is in EXC+ condition overall. Model 1937. The total length is 42.4 cm.

Grip: The grip of this dagger is a beauty, being a shade of dark 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.

Blade: The blade is in EXC++ condition throughout, with all of the crossgrain, a mirror finish and a needle-like tip. This blade is etched on the reverse with the Herder trademark having the firm's initials and location beneath, “Rich. A. Herder Solingen”. The leather washer is in place.

Scabbard: The scabbard is also a fine example. 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 two side screws.
