SS Dagger [Early Model] by Heinrich Böker, Solingen

SS [Schutzstaffel] Dagger in early Version. Modell 1933. The dagger is in fine condition throughout. This early SS Dagger is with the Maker Heinrich Böker, Solingen.

Grip: This grip shows no repairs, and fits the crossguards. There are some indications of wear on this grip. The runes displays good enamel, and the silvering to the runes and double-circled borders nicely match. The grip eagle is the early, “High Necked” variety. All the details are visible throughout the bird's feathering, talons, wreath, and mobile swastika. This early dagger is equipped with nickel crossguards and tang nut. These guards are in good shape. The guards are still in good condition, showing an average amount of wear from use.

Blade: The blade of this example is still in fairly nice condition, with just the slightest amount of gray in the surfaces. The motto Meine Ehre heißt Treue «My honor is loyalty» shows some wear to the center letters, but overall it has about 85% of the original darkening intact. The reverse ricasso of the blade is matching-etched formed by the firm's name and location, “Böker/Solingen”. The blade shoulders perfectly meet the lower crossguard contour.

Scabbard: The scabbard shell is totally straight on the obverse, having a couple of extremely minor wearing signs on the reverse, but not dings. The scabbard shell still retains 100% of the anodized finish. The matching nickel scabbard mounts are in excellent condition. The upper mount still has lots of desirable green residue on the surfaces that are covered by the original-to-the-piece vertical hanger.
