RLB EM Dagger 1st Model (M1936) by Gustav Spitzer Solingen

This 1936 Model RLB [Reichsluftschutzbund] Dagger is in EXC condition. The reverse ricasso is etched with the firm’s name and location: Gustav Spitzer Solingen.


Grip: The grip is an ebony example. This insignia is the style with a RLB enamel. The enamel swastika is in fine condition. The center obverse has the first style RLB button. This button presents a sunburst in the reverse and in the center are the enameled initials of the organization, “RLB”. The enameling is still excellent throughout these letters. Beneath the letters is a blue enameled small mobile swastika. The button has about 90% of its original silvering. The pommel is in the characteristic derby shape with an equatorial band. The crossguard features a stubby-winged Art Deco-style eagle clutching a smooth wreath and swastika. The quillons are decorated with cut lines and the ends are cut at 45 angles, presumably to impart a look of motion.

Blade: The RLB blade of this dagger is fine, retaining the original factory crossgrain. The tip of the blade remains needle-like. The reverse ricasso is marked with the Gustav Spitzer Solingen Lion logo, and the original leather blade washer is in place.

Scabbard: The scabbard has original black paint. Attached to the scabbard is the triangular hanger retainer wire. The hanger is attached, with a nickel clip and supple leather. The snap clip is nickel plated and marked with Assmann, DRGM and RZM M5/8.
