Army Officer’s Dagger with Hangers by E.&F. Hörster Solingen

Army Officer’s Dagger with Hangers by E.&F. Hörster Solingen

This Army Officer's Dagger is in EXC++ condition with Hangers and Portepee. Model 1935. The total length is 39.8 cm. The Dagger has the maker mark on the blade: E.&F. Hörster Solingen.

Grip: The grip of this dagger is a orange color and remains in perfect condition. The pommel shows minor traces of carrying time on the upper end, but still has frosting around the edges. The 14 standing oak leaves are in excellent condition, all having hand enhancement. The eagle has quite a bit of frosting clinging to the recessed areas as well as the upper arms of the guards.

Blade: The blade of this example is still nice and bright. Overall, this blade grades in EXC++ condition. The reverse ricasso is marked with the name and location of the firm, “E.&F. Hörster Solingen”. The brown leather washer is in place.

Scabbard: This scabbard is straight and has excellent silver plating. This plating is nicely patinated throughout. The bands are particularly interesting as they depict oak leaves which have been completely hand rendered. These oak leaves have pebbled backgrounds and are made in a series of lines to resemble veins. The throat is retained by one  screw.
